What it does

MoltenRock keeps your API keys encrypted on your Mac and out of plaintext configs, served only to the local AI agents you approve, with per-agent, per-key permissions and access logged. Keys are released securely to signature-verified apps only: OpenClaw works out of the box (secrets resolver + read-only email bridge). No account, no cloud, no telemetry - the vault runs fully offline. Requires a Mac with Secure Enclave (Apple Silicon or T2). Free tier

Privacy-first Mac apps for the AI-agent era, Swiss-built. Your credentials stay on your Mac; agents get scoped, local access.

Keys and email credentials locked behind your Mac’s Secure Enclave - served to the local agents you trust, on your terms. Part of a suite with MoltenMail & MoltenView. MoltenRock stores API keys and email credentials in an encrypted vault protected by your Mac’s Secure Enclave, and serves them to the local AI agents and developer tools you already use - so secrets never sit in plain-text config files. You decide which agent may use which key, and see every access in the activity log. Free to use · Pro from $9.99/mo for unlimited keys & mailboxes · requires a Mac with Secure Enclave (Apple Silicon or T2) Let your AI Agent read, search, and draft email on your Mac - every reply it writes…from moltenrock.com

    Hi 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…

  • OneCLI – Vault for AI Agents in RustMar 2026 · github.com · ▲161

    We 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…

  • Agent Vault – Open-source credential proxy and vault for agentsApr 2026 · github.com · ▲156

    Hey 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…

    Hi 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…

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • 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…
