Scilo Keeps API Keys Out of the Agent Transcript

scilo.app Observed source
Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A zero-knowledge secrets manager that lets Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and Codex use API keys without exposing their plaintext to the agent.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The homepage presents Scilo as a local-encryption layer between AI coding agents and developer credentials. Its MCP interface separates metadata lookup, subprocess injection, and explicit revealing, while the example runs a deploy script with a Stripe key in its environment rather than in the agent’s context. The page also describes separate device and member key wraps, and notes that distributed builds are not yet code-signed.
