Immortal_Combat951 · reddit · 2026-07-09

The author built an open-source tool for developers to avoid exposing real .env keys to proxies when using Claude Code/Codex. The first real user feedback noted that it "doesn't disrupt the workflow too much, and provides peace of mind knowing Claude can't see secrets," indicating a real demand for such a local-first security layer. The author also points out that the biggest gap right now is the lack of agent-native onboarding documentation and prompt support for new sessions.
