Over at varlock (https://varlock.dev -- also free, open source), we agree that .env as we know it is full of problems. But instead of abandoning it, we evolved it. We replace your .env.example with a .env.schema - using decorator style comments to add schema info, and functions to load and compose values.

A big difference between our tool and many other similar tools is that we combine the schema and value setting into one surface, with a way of merging many definitions together, much like cuelang - but in a way that feels more intuitive. It's extremely flexible, and can even do credential brokering for untrusted workloads.

I've been enjoying the secretspec content lately, and watching it evolve :)

It's too bad they call background services "agents" now instead of daemons like they used to, because your slogan could be Secrets for daemons

Varlock is clever. Sub string types for .envs pretty cool, why not
