What problem does it solve?
Enforce canonical credential retrieval to prevent missing-auth regressions and intermittent 401/403 errors after restarts.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Canonical credential order: environment variable first, then credentials file stored under ~/.config/<service>/credentials.json.
- Startup/auth-check helper: a reusable script placed in workspace/.pi/ that centralizes auth validation before heartbeats.
- Fallback policy and governance: explicit, deterministic fallbacks and safe logging practices to avoid exposing secrets.
- Policy alignment: integrates with HEARTBEAT.md and AGENTS.md to ban bypassing helper scripts.
Quick Start
Place a startup helper script in workspace/.pi for your service, configure the env var and credentials file, and run the startup auth probe before beginning heartbeat loops.
