EnvManager
I built this tool for myself, and the URL in this post points to it. I needed a secure way to store my environment variables because I work on many projects across multiple devices. Keeping each variable up‑to‑date on every device was a constant hassle. Now everything lives in a local file that I can pull and push with a simple CLI command. I never have to think about it again. The tool is also useful when you’re hiring freelancers who need access to staging or local environment variables for testing. Instead of handing over an entire .env file, only to have it linger for months and expose…

What it does
EnvManager replacesenv files shared via Slack, email, and sticky notes with an encrypted, versioned vault. • AES-256 encryption at rest; secrets decrypt only at access • Per-environment roles: interns see staging, leads see production; revoke instantly when devs leave • Immutable audit trail to roll back rotations • One command: envmanager pull syncs to your machine or CI/CD • Proxy functions call Stripe/OpenAI from static sites without leaking keys 2-min setup. 14-day free trial, no card.
Let Claude Code and Cursor use API keys without seeing them. One encrypted place for every .env, synced to Vercel, Dokploy, Coolify and more. Flat price per team, 14-day trial, no card.
Your agent needs a real API key to run a command, so you paste it into the chat and from then on it lives in the transcript. With envmanager run the agent writes a placeholder, we fill in the real value the moment the command starts, and we scrub it out of the output again. The rest of your team gets one encrypted place for every .env, synced to Vercel, Railway, Render, Dokploy and Coolify. founding spots left at $9/month for the whole team, locked for as long as you stay. After that it's $19. Store the value, mark it as a secret, and every environment, teammate, and deploy target picks it up from there. Paste or drag-and-drop your existing .env files. EnvManager encrypts every value with…from envmanager.com

Hey HN, I'm so happy to finally show you all this release after years of hard work. I posted the first version of EnvKey to HN back in 2017 (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15330757), then went through YC in W18 (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16569534).

It protects your organization's API keys, encryption keys, credentials, and other secrets, and makes it easy to run servers, scripts, tests, and everything else with the latest config. It also helps you avoid duplication in your…

Envelope – A modern environment variable cli tool2024 · github.com · ▲103Hey HN! I've built this cli tool to manage env variables of a project, but mostly for fun and to try out Rust and the clap crate. I had this idea when I made a big mistake and broke some production stuff because I had a very messy .env file laying around in my project. I was implementing new features for one of my projects and in my .env file I had the test database url commented out and the production one was not. Long story short, I applied migrations to the production database instead of my local test one and broke a lot of production APIs :') I wanted a tool that could easily help me…

Talanoa▲340Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate).

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
