Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Secret Management
Agents can read user-configured secrets at runtime using the `tai tool` CLI.
Secrets are encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) and decrypted only when read.
## Available Tools
| Tool | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `secret_list` | List secret names and descriptions (no values) |
| `secret_read` | Read a single secret value by name |
## Usage
### Bash
```bash
# List available secrets
tai tool secret_list
# Read a secret
TOKEN=$(tai tool secret_read '{"name": "GITHUB_TOKEN"}' | jq -r '.value')
git clone "https://${TOKEN}@github.com/org/repo.git"
```
### Node.js
```javascript
const { execSync } = require("child_process");
function readSecret(name) {
const raw = execSync(
`tai tool secret_read '${JSON.stringify({ name })}'`,
{ encoding: "utf-8" }
);
return JSON.parse(raw).value;
}
const token = readSecret("GITHUB_TOKEN");
```
### Python
```python
import json
import subprocess
def read_secret(name: str) -> str:
result = subprocess.run(
["tai", "tool", "secret_read", json.dumps({"name": name})],
capture_output=True, text=True, check=True,
)
return json.loads(result.stdout)["value"]

How to install
mdr add yaoapp/yao/secret@sha256:f75c56367f36256cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260525.b392da7, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
