I recently finally fully moved all my projects away from .env (for local dev) to infisical, thinking it'd be the way to stop agents from (accidentally?) peeking at my secrets. while I'm still glad I made the move, it's clear that local agents are still moving around my local environment with sufficient privileges and autonomy to use infisical cli however it wants. my work isn't high stakes enough to matter much and I have rotation scripts on hand, but it's hard to see how to fully close the door against this type of risk at this point.

There's a solution for this in Infisical! It's called secrets brokering and is built into the Infisical CLI: The Infisical agent proxy. Using this, your agent can use secrets without ever being able to fetch them back since they are injected into upstream requests. You can use this for local coding agents like Claude Code or Codex, and also have a standalone proxy with a separate machine identity for longer running agents (slack agents, hermes, openclaw etc.) Check it out here:
