🛡️ pi-secret-guardian

Secret detection and pi-share-hf integration for pi.

Part of the 0xKobold ecosystem.

What it does

• Scans project files, pi sessions, and environment for secrets (API keys, tokens, passwords)
• Runs TruffleHog for verified secret detection as a backstop
• Syncs discovered secrets to pi-share-hf's secrets.txt for deterministic redaction
• Patches pi-share-hf to load pi-ollama during LLM review (patches --no-extensions)
• Manages the full collect → review → upload pipeline

Installation

Bundled (recommended)

pi install npm:@0xkobold/pi-kobold
# pi-secret-guardian loaded as sub-extension automatically

Standalone

pi install npm:@0xkobold/pi-secret-guardian

# Or in pi-config.ts

  ]
}

# Or temporary (testing)
pi -e npm:@0xkobold/pi-secret-guardian

API / Library Usage

Types and utility functions are available for programmatic use:

// Import from shared module (recommended)
import {
  type SecretFinding,
  type TruffleHogFinding,
  type ScanResult,
  maskSecret,
  parseEnvFile,
  parseNpmrc,
  scanWithPatterns,
  SECRET_PATTERNS,
  ENV_FILES,
} from "@0xkobold/pi-secret-guardian/shared";

// Or from the main entry (convenience re-exports)
import { maskSecret, type SecretFinding } from "@0xkobold/pi-secret-guardian";

// Mask a secret for safe display
maskSecret("ghp_ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890");
// → "ghp_****890"

// Parse an .env file for secrets
const findings = parseEnvFile(envContent, "/path/to/.env");

// Scan content against known patterns
const patternHits = scanWithPatterns(sourceCode, "/path/to/file.ts", "project-file");

pi-share-hf Ollama Patch

pi-share-hf's LLM review subprocess uses pi --no-extensions, which prevents pi-ollama from loading. This extension includes a patch script that adds -e <pi-ollama-path> after --no-extensions so the review can use your ollama models.

The patch is applied automatically by secret_sync_hf. To apply manually:

bash packages/pi-secret-guardian/scripts/pi-share-hf-patch.sh

Re-run after any npm update -g pi-share-hf.

Configuration

File	Purpose
.pi/hf-sessions/secrets.txt	Auto-managed list of secrets to redact
.pi/hf-sessions/deny.txt	Regex patterns to reject sessions
.pi/hf-sessions/workspace.json	pi-share-hf workspace config

Architecture

├── index.ts    # Extension factory (4 tools + 2 commands + lifecycle hooks)
└── shared.ts   # Types, patterns, and utility functions (library API)

Integrated into pi-kobold as a sub-extension with duplicate-load guard.
