Claude Vault

Category: Security · Sub-category: identity-access

ai:claude

Use this skill whenever the user mentions API keys, passwords, tokens, credentials, secrets, .env files, OAuth tokens, or any sensitive value that needs to end up in code, config, or a command. The skill stores secrets in a vault that the model never reads — you reference them by name and let the claude-vault CLI inject the actual values.

What this skill does
