What it does
Today, when users hand credentials to AI agents, they have two options: paste an API key into the agent's config, or grant full account access via OAuth. Once handed over, control is lost — users don't know which credentials the agent used, what resources it accessed, or whether it passed credentials to downstream agents.

The open-source credential vault for AI agents. Store secrets once, let agents execute with them — zero-trust, task-scoped, fully audited. AI agents are powerful — they can code, browse, deploy, and manage services on your behalf. But to do any of that, they need your passwords, tokens, and API keys. Today, most people solve this by pasting credentials directly into the agent's context. That means: ACV acts as a credential butler between you and your AI agents. You store your secrets once; agents use them through a secure execution layer — without ever seeing the plaintext. You store your GitHub token in the vault ↓ Your agent starts a task: "I need to read your repos" ↓ ACV checks: Is this…from github.com

Agent Vault – Open-source credential proxy and vault for agentsApr 2026 · github.com · ▲156Hey HN! Today we're launching Agent Vault - an open source HTTP credential proxy and vault for AI agents. Repo is at https://github.com/Infisical/agent-vault, and there's an in-depth description at https://infisical.com/blog/agent-vault-the-open-source-crede.... We built Agent Vault in response to a question that been plaguing the industry: How do we give agents secure access to services without them reading any secrets? Most teams building agents have run into this exact problem: They build an agent or agentic system and come to realize at some point…
OneCLI – Vault for AI Agents in RustMar 2026 · github.com · ▲161We built OneCLI because AI agents are being given raw API keys. And it's going about as well as you'd expect. We figured the answer isn't "don't give agents access," it's "give them access without giving them secrets." OneCLI is an open-source gateway that sits between your AI agents and the services they call. You store your real credentials once in OneCLI's encrypted vault, and give your agents placeholder keys. When an agent makes an HTTP call through the proxy, OneCLI matches the request by host/path, verifies the agent should have access, swaps the placeholder for the real…
keychains.devFeb 2026 · keychains.dev · ▲177Hi HN — I’m a heavy OpenClaw user and, like many others, I’ve been thinking about how to give these new “unleashed” agents secure access to my accounts. Agents need API access to be useful. But API keys are long-lived secrets. And agents are not secure environments. So I built something for myself that quickly turned into a product: keychains.dev. The idea is simple: agents never see raw credentials. With Keychains.dev: • Agents make API calls via a drop-in replacement for curl or JavaScript’s fetch() • They use template variable names instead of embedding credentials • The request is…
LatchkeyMar 2026 · github.com · ▲122Hi HN, At Imbue, we’ve been following the rapid developments in the agent landscape and noticed that the way agents interact with third-party services on users’ behalf often leaves a lot to be desired. Integrations are ad hoc, complicated, context-heavy, and either unfriendly to non-technical users or tied to a lock-in of some sort. We‘re experimenting with a command-line tool, Latchkey, that could be used by local agents targeted at non-technical users while avoiding remote intermediaries. As far as we know, this is the only existing approach at the intersection of these two goals. Core…

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
