    For dev-first environments, I just wrote a simple wrapper for 1password <https://github.com/na4ma4/1password-direnv-tool>, although I found their application SDK to be quite broken (will stop working after a few hours for no idea why), I didn't write it for anyone other than me, so it works fine for my use case :).

    I find it super easy to just make a document, and enter key-val details as attributes.

      Why not use the op cli? It seems to do the same thing?

    Thank you! Hurray! A yet another brand new credentials "local-first" cloud with very transparent and intuitive brand name, that is going to be "responsible" for "decades" (hopefully years) of storing and maintaining someone's credentials with undisclosed infrastructure, legal terms in cases of the credentials leaked during a bug (e.g. at E2EE/secure channel session), and no actual comparison stated between the current competitors, including DotEnv cloud service, BitWarden, 1Password, KeePass-based etc.!

    No, sorry, I, nor anyone I know, would trust credentials to any organization with so little transparency and lack of guarantees, also considering audited alternatives.

    Oh, and indeed, where is the key card? Is it in an ASCII art somewhere in documentation?

    The design is nice, however, but... may I ask, how much non-AI work was done, if any?

    It literally takes 20 minutes to hack this together with an agent and tell it to 'create a stunning landing page'..

    I assume other processes running as the same user can still freely read the environment, for example using `ps -Eww` on Mac or inspecting /proc on Linux, right? If so, that's an easy way for a rogue process to bypass the local encrypted vault entirely.

    I couldn't find the technique used above the fold (or a short way below).

    Is this something more (and something more interesting) than just standard spawned process inheriting the parent process environment?

    IOW is this actually injecting in the true sense of the word? Because that'd be interesting.

    • zemo 10 hours ago

      Reads like it’s not copying the parent, it’s manually constructing the env dictionary to be passed to execve explicitly. I do this in one of my tools at work because developers were exfiltrating secrets and hand jamming them into .env files.

      • Wicher 10 hours ago

        Yeah, so, it's not injecting? To inject something into X, X needs to exist. X does not exist yet when execve is set up.

        I'm not being pedantic. I just want to read about injection when I'm promised injection :-) because that'd be technically interesting for me. Plainly calling execve isn't so much, I have the manpage here already :-)

          You're not alone. I was hoping for the same.

        Something tells me that if I look, I'll see a .env being used in the actual tool

    reminds me of the 1password cli:

    Every LLM site looks like Vercel which is such a shame.

  • absoluteunit1 10 hours ago

    Is this similar to what Infisical does?

    This reminds me of the time a trainee dev was doing some work on a security module to hide the IP of the server. Just spending energy on a non threat.
