Environment Secrets

Use the bundled helper for secret handling and expose names or metadata, never values, unless the user explicitly requests a safe destination.

Rules

• Resolve the exact dotenv files and precedence before loading anything.
• Keep secrets out of command text, process listings, logs, tool output, chat, commits, and reusable artifacts.
• Use one-shot process injection by default; persistence requires explicit authorization and a named target.
• Never copy values between personal and company scopes without confirming identity and destination.
• Treat malformed files, expansion, quoting, and duplicate keys as semantic concerns rather than editing them blindly.

Inspect the helper's current help before use. Verify only key presence and the authorized operation's outcome.
