OSS By Keythings · Securing Keys Since 2025

Your agent asked for Stripe.
You pasted the live key.

MetaVault keeps the key on this machine. The agent asks for a capability, a local model scores it, you approve, and the secret never enters the chat.

01 // The request
The agent asks. You answer. Explore

02 // What leaks Zero keys
Pasted into the chat
The key sits in the transcript, the tool log, and tomorrow's rotation.
Something to steal
Asked as a capability
The agent receives the tool result. The key stayed inside vaultd for that one call.
Nothing to leak
The secret is not a message Explore
03 // The floor Fail closed
A write under a read ceiling dies first

Policy denies it before the model is asked. The warden can narrow a scope or force you to look. It cannot widen one, and it never sees the key.

Secure with the model off Explore
04 // Interactive preview

A request, from the paste to the result.

Pick a step. The buttons are a simulation. Nothing is stored, and no key is real.

Store the key once

You type it in the app. The field clears. The agent learns the alias and the ceiling, never the value.

Open source, not a plan

The license is the price.

Apache-2.0. The vault, the warden, the MCP server, and the audit log ship together. There is no tier to upgrade into.

The license Apache-2.0
$0 / forever

Fork it, read it, run it without an account.

  • — Vault, warden, MCP, and the desktop app
  • — No account and no telemetry
  • — Keys encrypted at rest, master key in the OS keychain
  • — The canary test fails the build if a secret leaks
  • — Docs, architecture, and the research report are in the repo
