Can it detect keys for specific cloud providers?

Yes, it is pre-configured to recognize patterns for major cloud providers including AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, as well as common SaaS API keys.

How does the Secret Scanner find exposed credentials?

It uses a combination of regex-based pattern matching for known service keys (like AWS or Stripe) and entropy analysis to identify high-randomness strings likely to be passwords or private keys.

Does this skill automatically remove the found secrets?

No, it identifies the locations and provides remediation steps so you can safely rotate or remove the secrets manually without breaking your application.

When is the best time to use the secret-scanner skill?

It is best used proactively before committing changes to version control, during security reviews, or when onboarding a new codebase.
