I have a feature suggestion:

When you ‘lnk add’ a file, check it for patterns that might indicate it contains a secret, and warn the user if indications of a secret are found. Require —force or something to override.

should be fine on private repos tho
Most people have public dotfiles actually

we only see those dotfiles that are public so how can we know?

In fact, my estimates are that 100% of popular dotfiles repos are public.
