Secrets Management & Security

About

This skill empowers Claude to architect and implement robust secrets management strategies using industry-standard tools like HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, and Azure Key Vault. It provides specific implementation patterns for securing CI/CD environments, automating secret rotation, and integrating with Kubernetes via the External Secrets Operator, ensuring that sensitive data like database passwords and TLS certificates are never hardcoded or exposed in version control.

Key Features

• Multi-provider support for Vault, AWS, Azure, and GCP
• Automated secret rotation logic and implementation
• 114 GitHub stars
• CI/CD integration patterns for GitHub Actions and GitLab CI
• Infrastructure as Code patterns for secure credential injection
• Secret scanning integration using TruffleHog and GitGuardian

Use Cases

• Implementing automated rotation for rotating cloud infrastructure credentials
• Preventing sensitive data leaks with pre-commit secret scanning hooks
• Securing API keys and database credentials in production CI/CD pipelines
