SecretSpec

SecretSpec declares secrets once in secretspec.toml (names + descriptions, never values) and resolves them from any of 11 backends: keyring, 1Password, Vault, AWS, GCP, .env. Same command everywhere: secretspec run --profile production -- npm start. Per-secret fallback chains (providers = ["vault", "keyring", "env"]) and a ref = { item, field } form points at a secret you already have elsewhere, no renaming. Sharpest bit: agents get held to a stricter bar by default. require_reason = "agents" forces secretspec run --reason "..." before an AI agent can read a secret, appended to a local audit log; humans running interactively are unaffected. Rust core, SDKs for Python/Go/Node/Ruby/PHP/Haskell. Worth piloting on a project drowning in .env sprawl.
