Your AI Will Leak Your Secrets. Not Maliciously — Architecturally.

Description and use

<p><em>Prompt-level secret hygiene ("just don't paste your keys into the chat") collapses the moment your AI becomes the operator. I built a one-time install interface so my agent could put an API key into production without ever seeing it — blind paste, single-use token, automatic teardown. A secret your agent's context never contains cannot leak from it.</em></p> <p>The key existed for exactly one screen. One dialog, one moment, one string of characters — and then it was gone forever. The provider shows it once and never again. There is no "reveal my key" button. Lose it and you start over.<
