Hi Boris. Love the velocity of features. Are you planning on adding a secrets manager? Enterprise workflows almost always require an encrypted parameter or calling a secret.

I think they have vaults[0] which provide it. I don't think this is available on the non platform side.

This is it, thank you. I’m surprised I couldn’t get Claude to surface this capability.
Why should secrets be built in? What's the issue with tool use and something like 1password's or Vault's CLI?
Another piece to pay for.
There are free alternatives: https://openbao.org/

Personally, I am happy paying 1password for my personal secret management. Their security credibility and bona fides are well-established. I'd strongly consider them for a business contract too.
