Envy is a terminal-based secrets manager designed for developers who want to keep API keys, passwords and environment variables organised in an encrypted vault. It combines an interactive terminal interface with command-line tools for scripting and automation.
The software uses AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption with Argon2id key derivation to protect stored secrets. Credentials can be grouped by project and separated into development, staging and production environments, reducing the need to maintain multiple unprotected configuration files.
The terminal interface provides fuzzy searching for quickly locating stored credentials. Envy also supports secret version history, importing existing .env files and exporting project configurations. Command-line operations let developers retrieve secrets or inject them into application processes.
This is free and open source software.
