What it does
Secret management expert. ALWAYS invoke this skill when you need to read API keys, tokens, or other secrets configured by the user. Never hardcode credentials, use this skill to retrieve them securely.
Secret Tools
Two tools for accessing user-configured secrets, called via bash.
secret_list
List available secret names and descriptions. Does not return secret values, use secret_read for that.
tai tool secret_list '{}'
No parameters required. Returns secrets configured for the current assistant.
secret_read
Read a secret value by name. Returns the decrypted value for use in scripts.
tai tool secret_read '{"name": "GITHUB_TOKEN"}'
tai tool secret_read '{"name": "AWS_SECRET_KEY"}'
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
name | string | yes | Secret key name (e.g. GITHUB_TOKEN, AWS_SECRET_KEY) |
Security: Never log, print, or expose the returned secret value in output visible to users.
Typical Workflow
secret_list, discover what secrets are availablesecret_read, retrieve a specific secret by name- Use the value in API calls, git auth, etc.
Guidelines
- Always call
secret_listfirst to check if a required secret exists before reading - Never hardcode API keys or tokens, always use
secret_read - Secret values are decrypted at read time; treat them as sensitive
- If a secret is not found, prompt the user to configure it in their settings
- All output is JSON
