Atelier scans project secrets and collects them via UI out of the agent's sight
lucasmeijer · x · 2026-09-15
lucasmeijer details another upcoming Atelier feature: the tool discovers all secrets/env vars used by a project and spawns a UI asking the user to supply them — deliberately out of the agent's sight, so credentials never reach the model.
A practical security design for AI coding tools: the agent handles environment setup while humans fill in the secrets.
