Scans a repository and its git history for leaked secrets (API keys, tokens, passwords, private keys), fixes .gitignore and env handling, and guides safe key rotation. Use before pushing, before open-sourcing a repo, or when the user asks to check for leaked keys or secrets.

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

# Env Secrets Guard

Stop secrets from leaving the machine, and clean up properly if they already have.

## 1. Scan

Run the bundled scanner first. It needs only Python 3 and never prints full secret values:

```bash
python3 scripts/scan_secrets.py .             # tracked files
python3 scripts/scan_secrets.py . --history   # + every commit in git history
```

For deeper coverage, also use a dedicated scanner if one is installed:

```bash
gitleaks detect --source . --redact -v      # working tree + history
trufflehog git file://. --only-verified     # verified live secrets
```

Otherwise, search manually (working tree **and** history):

```bash
git grep -nIE '(AKIA[0-9A-Z]{16}|sk-[A-Za-z0-9_-]{20,}|ghp_[A-Za-z0-9]{36}|github_pat_[A-Za-z0-9_]{50,}|xox[baprs]-[A-Za-z0-9-]+|AIza[0-9A-Za-z_-]{35}|sk_live_[0-9a-zA-Z]{24,}|-----BEGIN [A-Z ]*PRIVATE KEY-----)'
git log -p --all -S 'PRIVATE KEY' --oneline | head -50
git ls-files | grep -iE '(^|/)\.env(\..*)?$|\.pem$|\.p12$|\.keystore$|id_rsa|credentials|service-account.*\.json'
```
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add milad-ahmd/agent-skills/env-secrets-guard@sha256:afaa83229a1c8fe0

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.7c7d700, 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.
