Secret Scanner

Scans your codebase for leaked API keys, tokens, and credentials. Blocks git push if secrets are found.

Usage

# Scan current directory
vibeco secrets

# Scan specific path
vibeco secrets /path/to/project

Detected Secrets (22 patterns)

Provider	Pattern	Example
OpenAI	sk-proj-..., sk-...	sk-proj-abc123...
Anthropic	sk-ant-...	sk-ant-api03-...
AWS	AKIA...	AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
GitHub	ghp_..., gho_..., github_pat_...	ghp_xxxxxxxxxxxx
Stripe	sk_live_..., pk_live_...	sk_live_4eC39H...
Google	AIza...	AIzaSyDaGm...
Slack	xoxb-..., xoxp-...	xoxb-123-456-abc
SendGrid	SG....	SG.xxx.yyy
npm	npm_...	npm_xxxxxxxxxxxxx
PyPI	pypi-...	pypi-AgEIcHl...
Database URLs	postgres://, mongodb://, mysql://, redis://	With embedded passwords
Private Keys	PRIVATE KEY-----	PEM format

Auto-Setup: Git Pre-Push Hook

Add to your project's .git/hooks/pre-push:

#!/bin/bash
vibeco secrets "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)" || exit 1

Make it executable:

chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-push

Now every git push will scan for secrets first. If any are found, push is blocked.

How It Works

1. Walks all source files (skips node_modules, dist, .git, lock files)
2. Matches 22 regex patterns for known API key formats
3. Skips comments and regex definition lines (avoids false positives)
4. If secrets found: prints masked values, exits with code 1 (blocks push)
5. If clean: prints success, exits with code 0

What to Do If Secrets Are Found

1. Remove the secret from source code
2. Move to .env file (add .env to .gitignore)
3. Use environment variables: process.env.API_KEY
4. If already pushed: rotate the credential immediately (it's compromised)
