Machine Identity
See every non-human identity. No secret dump.
What it does
Humans have SSO. Bots, CI jobs, and scripts have leftover keys. Machine Identity inventories service accounts, API keys, tokens, and automation credentials so you can govern them — it is not a plaintext secrets dump and not a password vault. Free tier to start. Built by AlfaNest Labs.
AlfaNest Labs ships AlfaNest Relay (local-first agent event bus) and AlfaNest Academy (ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Auditor prep), plus API risk scanning, AI agent guardrails, machine identity, clearance audits, SafeKey vault, and WASTE.LAND marketplace.

- OOOneCLI – OSS credential gateway that keeps secrets out of AI agentsJul 2026 · github.com · ▲110
hey HN, Jonathan and Guy here, creators of OneCLI (https://onecli.sh/). OneCLI is an open source vault for AI Agents. Traditional vaults are used to store your secrets and, on demand, provide them to you all in a secure way, trusting the person to keep them safe. We figured that in the agent's world, this is not the case, as you don't know what happens with the secret after it's delivered to the agent, or where it was saved. Or maybe someone even manipulated them to hand them over... From that understanding, we decided to build a network gateway that sits between your AI…
- SMSecs-man, a secrets manager you can (not) rely onJun 2026 · github.com · ▲31
This is a tool to manage encrypted local backups of secrets. The core idea is that it aims to be usable without depending on it, meaning that even if the software disappeared from the face of Earth tomorrow, your data would still be recoverable. It also integrates nicely with NixOS (which is what I use, though it does not require NixOS to be used). I have summed up a bit of explanation and some answers to reasonable questions in a blog post: https://baldino.dev/blog/secs-man/

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
