Keys

---

name: Keys description: Secure API key management with broker. Keys never exposed to agent context. metadata: {"clawdbot":{"emoji":"🔑","requires":{"bins":["curl","jq","bash"]},"os":["linux","darwin"]}}

Usage

Make authenticated API calls without seeing the key:

keys-broker call '{"action":"call","service":"openai","url":"https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions","method":"POST","body":{"model":"gpt-4","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}}'

Response:

{"ok": true, "status": 200, "body": {...}}

Supported Services

Only preconfigured services work (security: prevents key exfiltration):

• openai → api.openai.com
• anthropic → api.anthropic.com
• stripe → api.stripe.com
• github → api.github.com

To add services, edit ALLOWED_URLS in keys-broker.sh.

Rules

1. Never retrieve keys directly — always use keys-broker call
2. Never ask user to paste keys in chat — guide them to keychain commands

Other Tasks

• First time setup → see setup.md (install keys-broker.sh)
• Add/remove/rotate keys → see manage.md

Limitations

Does NOT work in: Docker containers, WSL, headless Linux servers (no keychain access).
