Victus C:\æ\secrets\secrets.json ── SECRET custody (local-only) ────┤

+æ://secrets (conductor broker)
reads local file, masks in stdout,
injects value into agent at runtime
── NEVER uploads / NEVER logs raw ──
Surface (bridge UI) is hosted on github.io. Public, fine.
Secret stays on Victus in C:\æ\secrets\secrets.json, git-ignored.
Broker (+æ://secrets) is the only thing that moves the secret from disk into an agent.
ADD PROVIDER X APIFLOW
Reject cloud shares. A OneDrive/Google/Dropbox link for a secrets file = the token is burned. Tell them to revoke + regenerate, then use the local path. Cloud is for compute, never for keys.
Save the key, then Push to local → C:\æ\secrets\secrets.json. If the browser only downloads, move it to that exact path.
Confirm via the broker (no chat paste, no raw read):
+æ://secrets sources # which candidate paths exist? debug a failed handoff
+æ://secrets status # file present? count?
+æ://secrets list # keys + kinds + MASKED preview (no raw value)
+æ://secrets get <KEY> # resolve; masked in stdout; value carried for agent only
Use the resolved value for read-only recon / agent wiring. Never print it.
BROKER CONTRACT+æ://secrets
resolution order per key:
env → HERMES_SECRETS env → C:\æ\secrets\secrets.json
(shared agents/secret_source.py :: get_secret / get_by_prefix)
get <KEY> → masked stdout + secret_value inside result dict
(carrier for the agent; callers MUST NOT log it)
sources → lists candidate paths + which exist
(use when a push "didn't work": wrong name/dir, cloud download not moved)
READ-ONLY RECON (DO EXAMPLE)NO WRITE
after +æ://secrets get digital_ocean resolves:
GET /v2/account → status, droplet_limit, email_verified
GET /v2/regions → available regions (nyc1 nearest, standard features)
GET /v2/sizes → cheapest viable: s-1vcpu-1gb @ $6/mo
NEVER POST /v2/droplets unless the user says "provision"
compute stays on RTX 3050 via rtx3050://; VPS is the Python backbone.
PITFALLSAVOID
C:\ae vs C:\æ — unicode path is real. Latin silently fails.
Browser cache blocks in-tab SAVE re-test; verify server-side via asset fetch or fresh session.
Cloud-share reflex — when a secrets link is shared, stop + tell them to rotate. Don't fetch.
Key-name drift — resolve by the actual key (e.g. digital_ocean, not DO_API_TOKEN).
secret_value leakage — broker's result dict carries raw value; log only .surface / masked stdout.
