SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Managing credentials and secrets across projects often leads to insecure practices like hardcoding passwords or pasting them into chat. This Skill guides the setup and use of the 1Password CLI so secrets are read, injected, or passed to commands without ever being written to disk or logs. ## Core Features & Use Cases - CLI Setup and Sign-In: Walks through installing the 1Password CLI, enabling desktop app integration, and authenticating via op signin. - Secret Reading and Injection: Reads secrets with op read, injects them into config templates with op inject, and runs commands with secrets via op run. - Safe Session Handling: Runs all op commands inside a dedicated tmux session to avoid repeated authentication prompts and TTY failures. - Use Case: You need a database password for a deployment script. Instead of copying it into a file, use op run --env-file to inject the secret at runtime directly from your 1Password vault. ## Quick Start Set up the 1Password CLI on this machine, sign me in, and read the database password from my app-prod vault without printing it to the chat.

Frequently Asked Questions about 1password

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I sign in to the 1Password CLI?

Run op signin inside a tmux session after enabling desktop app integration in the 1Password app. If you have multiple accounts, specify one with --account or the OP_ACCOUNT environment variable.

How do I read a secret from 1Password without exposing it?

Use op read with a secret reference like op://vault/item/field, or inject secrets at runtime with op run or op inject. These approaches avoid writing secrets to disk or printing them in logs.

Does the 1Password CLI work on Linux and Windows?

Yes, the CLI supports macOS, Windows, and Linux. macOS requires Big Sur 11.0 or later, Windows uses PowerShell with Windows Hello, and Linux app integration requires PolKit plus an authentication agent.

Why does op say my account is not signed in?

This happens when the desktop app is locked or app integration is not enabled. Re-run op signin inside tmux and authorize the prompt in the 1Password desktop app, then verify with op whoami.

Why must op commands run inside tmux?

The shell tool creates a fresh TTY per command, which breaks the authenticated CLI session and causes repeated prompts. A dedicated tmux session preserves the session state across op commands.
