How does deep-env keep my credentials secure?

It utilizes hardware-backed macOS Keychain storage for local data and employs AES-256 encryption for any data synced to iCloud.

Can I distinguish between global keys and project-specific secrets?

Yes, you can store keys globally for all projects (like Anthropic API keys) or assign them to specific project directories or shortcuts.

Will I be prompted for a password for every environment variable?

No, deep-env is architected to store all credentials in a single keychain entry, resulting in only one password prompt regardless of how many keys you manage.

What happens if my local configuration becomes corrupted?

Deep-env includes built-in 'validate' and 'restore' commands, allowing you to check data integrity and recover from automated timestamped backups.

How do I sync my environment variables to a new computer?

Simply run 'deep-env push' on your primary machine and 'deep-env pull' on the new machine to migrate your credentials and project assignments.

Security & Testing

Manages and syncs environment variables securely across multiple macOS devices using hardware-backed keychain storage and iCloud.

About

Deep-env is a specialized tool for Claude Code designed to streamline the management of API keys and project-specific secrets across different development environments. By consolidating all credentials into a single, secure macOS keychain entry, it minimizes repetitive password prompts while offering robust synchronization via iCloud. The skill automates the creation of .env.local files from templates, distinguishes between global and project-specific variables, and provides a full suite of backup and validation tools to ensure your development configuration remains consistent and protected across all your Macs.
