SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Secure, repeatable management of provider keys and secrets using Varlock as the primary configuration and secret-resolution layer, eliminating plaintext leakage and enabling safe deployments.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Schema-driven secret handling with centralized references
  • Versioned backups and audit-ready remediation artifacts
  • Validation and redaction to prevent accidental exposure

Quick Start

Run a secure migration and verification workflow for your Hermes/Fabric context using Varlock to load and verify secrets without exposing them.

FAQPage Schema
How do I secure plaintext API keys and migrate them to a secret management system?

To secure plaintext API keys, you can migrate them to a secret management system using Varlock to resolve references and sanitize legacy values. This process enforces versioned backups and generates redacted verification artifacts to prevent accidental exposure.

Can I use Varlock for runtime secret resolution across Hermes and Fabric contexts?

Yes, you can use Varlock for runtime secret resolution across Hermes and Fabric contexts. It serves as the primary configuration layer to load and verify secrets securely without exposing them during deployment workflows.

How do I validate outputs and generate audit-ready remediation artifacts for provider keys?

To validate outputs for provider keys, the workflow applies redacted verification artifacts and versioned backups. This provides audit-ready remediation by sanitizing legacy values and confirming that no plaintext secrets are exposed in the final configuration.

Does this approach require existing backups before applying secure secret resolution?

Yes, the secure secret resolution process enforces versioned backups automatically before sanitizing legacy values. This ensures you have audit-ready remediation artifacts and a safe rollback path before migrating plaintext configurations.
