I built Envs.AI – Free env variable manager for dev teams
Hi HN, I built Envs.AI, a free tool to solve the headache of managing environment variables across different environments and platforms. Envs.AI lets you store all your environment variables in one secure place and easily integrate them with Jenkins, Python, and other platforms in your tech stack. No more scattered .env files or sharing secrets through Slack messages. Some features: - Central repository for all env variables - Secure storage with proper access controls - Simple integration with CI/CD pipelines - Easy access via API for different languages and frameworks - Team…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi HN, I built Envs.AI, a free tool to solve the headache of managing environment variables across different environments and platforms. Envs.AI lets you store all your environment variables in one secure place and easily integrate them with Jenkins, Python, and other platforms in your tech stack. No more scattered .env files or sharing secrets through Slack messages. Some features: - Central repository for all env variables - Secure storage with proper access controls - Simple integration with CI/CD pipelines - Easy access via API for different languages and frameworks - Team collaboration features - 100% free to use I built this because I was frustrated with how environment variables were managed across projects and teams. Would love to hear your feedback and suggestions!

.env files have always felt archaic, insecure, clunky and honestly just not fun to work with. I see my friends (and myself) accidentally committing them all the time. Managing secrets across projects becomes a mess of copy-pasting keys into scattered env files with no real way to sync anything. So I built better-env: a secure, developer-friendly alternative to .env. Store your secrets once in a global encrypted store, and load them per-project at runtime. I’d love feedback on whether this feels useful beyond solo devs, and what you’d want for teams or CI setups. Fully open source:…

Now that I have your attention (“Don’t you dare version control environment files!!”, “This can’t be safe.”) and before you tear me and my project to shreds, please allow me to take a moment to celebrate something small but meaningful: I’ve finally released a thing. Thank you. Motivation tl;dr: The existing tools and libraries for versioning and syncing environment files / secrets across team members and CI machines just didn’t cut it for me. So, I set out to create my own solution — one finally checks all my boxes. So what is places-env? (I encourage you to check the readme…
- KCKeyEnv – CLI-first secrets manager for dev teams (Rust)Jan 2026 · keyenv.dev · ▲5
Hi HN, I built KeyEnv because I was tired of the "can you Slack me the Stripe key?" workflow. The problem: My team's secrets lived in a mix of Slack DMs, shared Google Docs, and .env files that definitely weren't in .gitignore at some point. Enterprise tools like Vault required more DevOps time than we had. Doppler was close but felt heavier than we needed. What KeyEnv does: keyenv init # link project keyenv pull # sync secrets to local .env keyenv run -- npm start # inject secrets, run command That's basically it. Secrets are encrypted client-side (AES-256-GCM) before leaving your machine.…

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.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
