env-secrets-managerEnvironment and secrets management lifecycle: .env scaffolding, validation, leak detection, and rotation across Vault, AWS SSM, 1Password, and Doppler.
Env Secrets Manager is an agent skill from borghei/Claude-Skills. Environment and secrets management lifecycle: .env scaffolding, validation, leak detection, and rotation across Vault, AWS SSM, 1Password, and Doppler. Use when setting up projects, scanning for leaked secrets, or rotating credentials.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/best-practices-and-troubleshooting.md`, `references/env-file-structure.md` and `references/leak-detection-and-rotation.md`).
It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Secrets management. It works with Amazon Web Services. The repository describes itself as: 385 AI skills, 77 expert agents, and 900 stdlib Python tools for every team: engineering, PM, marketing, C-level, compliance, business ops, research, and a LinkedIn toolkit… The licence is MIT.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c9a1487. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pythonFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Env Secrets Manager loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 64 tokens; SKILL.md has 659 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

This skill also uses 7 other files; get the full folder from GitHub.Complete environment variable and secrets management lifecycle: .env file structure across dev/staging/production, .env.example auto-generation that strips sensitive values, required-variable validation at startup, secret leak detection in git history, credential rotation playbooks, environment drift detection, and integration with HashiCorp Vault, AWS SSM, 1Password CLI, and Doppler.
.env.example (strips secrets), environment-specific files, and fail-fast startup validation.Before running, confirm these inputs. If any is unknown or vague, ASK — do not assume:
.env, scan for leaked secrets, or check env drift (selects env_validator.py vs secret_scanner.py vs env_sync_checker.py).env/.env.example files or directory to scan (the input the tools read)Stop rule: ask only the 2-3 that most change the output. If the user says "just draft it," proceed and list your assumptions at the top of the artifact.
| Tool | Purpose | Command |
|---|---|---|
env_validator.py | Validate a .env against .env.example: missing/extra vars, empty secrets, leaked credentials | python scripts/env_validator.py .env.example .env --strict --check-secrets |
secret_scanner.py | Scan a directory/file for hardcoded secrets via pattern matching | python scripts/secret_scanner.py ./src --severity high --json |

Load the reference that matches the task — keep this file lean and pull detail on demand:

Environment and secrets management lifecycle: .env scaffolding, validation, leak detection, and rotation across Vault, AWS SSM, 1Password, and Doppler. Env Secrets Manager is an agent skill from borghei/Claude-Skills.env scaffolding, validation, leak detection, and rotation across Vault, AWS SSM, 1Password, and Doppler.
Env Secrets Manager fits situations like: setting up projects; scanning for leaked secrets; rotating credentials.
Run `npx skills add borghei/Claude-Skills --skill env-secrets-manager -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (engineering/env-secrets-manager in borghei/Claude-Skills) into .claude/skills/env-secrets-manager in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add borghei/Claude-Skills --skill env-secrets-manager -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (engineering/env-secrets-manager in borghei/Claude-Skills) into .agents/skills/env-secrets-manager in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add borghei/Claude-Skills --skill env-secrets-manager -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/env-secrets-manager, .gemini/skills/env-secrets-manager, .github/skills/env-secrets-manager and .opencode/skills/env-secrets-manager in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Env Secrets Manager needs Python for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (python). Our summary lists: Python 3.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (mentions a .env file), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
Env Secrets Manager is published under the MIT licence (declared in SKILL.md). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.6k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 6.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 3.9k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
