About:
Vaulted is a command-line tool for securely storing and managing environment variables and secrets. It creates encrypted, named sessions that can be temporarily injected into your shell or commands. This allows developers to safely handle sensitive data like API keys and credentials without exposing them in plain text.
Key Features:
  • Encrypted session storage for environment variables
  • Temporary environment injection for shells and commands
  • Support for AWS STS and temporary credentials
  • No background processes or daemons required
Use Cases:
  • Managing cloud provider credentials securely
  • Sharing environment configurations within teams
  • Running commands with temporary secrets without polluting the shell
Alternatives:
  • direnv – direnv loads environment variables automatically per directory, while vaulted provides explicit encrypted storage and on-demand loading
  • HashiCorp Vault – Vault is a comprehensive secrets management platform, while vaulted is a simpler, local-only CLI tool
