What it does

Cloud Secrets is an agent skill from davidondrej/cloudroom-core. Ask the user for API keys, tokens, or other credentials from a Cloudroom cloud thread and write them to a dotenv file without exposing them in chat.

Its SKILL.md is about 340 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Secrets management. The repository describes itself as: Open-source, self-hostable Rust runtime that runs Claude Code, Codex, and Pi in the cloud. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Secrets management

Example prompts

  • “/cloud-secrets”

Requirements

  • A credential in OPENAI_API_KEY
  • A credential in RESEND_API_KEY

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d5222b5. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    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.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • OPENAI_API_KEY
    • RESEND_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Cloud Secrets loads about 337 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 41 tokens; SKILL.md has 140 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~41
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~337

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.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:17
    --write-env .env.local

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Ask the user for API keys, tokens, or other credentials from a Cloudroom cloud thread and write them to a dotenv file without exposing them in chat.

Request secrets securely

Use cloudroom secret request when the user needs to supply a credential. Never ask the user to paste a secret into chat.

Batch every known variable into one request. Check documentation or .env.example for names, but never read or print an existing secret-bearing env file.

bash
cloudroom secret request OPENAI_API_KEY RESEND_API_KEY \
  --purpose "Configure application credentials" \
  --describe OPENAI_API_KEY "OpenAI API key used by the server" \
  --describe RESEND_API_KEY "Resend API key used for transactional email" \
  --write-env .env.local
  • The user fills a secure form in the thread. The command waits until they submit or cancel, so allow it up to 10 minutes.
  • Relative paths resolve from the current folder. The file is written with mode 0600.
  • After success, trust the printed path and added/updated/unchanged counts. Never verify with cat, env, or anything that reveals values.
  • If it reports duplicate or multiline assignments, fix the file structure without reading values, then rerun.
  • If the request is cancelled, ask in chat whether to try again. Never ask for the values in chat.
