DESCRIPTION

secrets exposure scan / hardcoded API key detector / .env-committed-key audit / Next.js client env leak detector / pre-deploy secret gate. Fetches top-level config files (.env*, wrangler.toml, vercel.json, next.config.*, package.json, etc.) and scans for hardcoded AWS/OpenAI/Anthropic/Stripe/GitHub keys, private keys, DB URLs with passwords, JWT secrets, weak values in .env.example, and server-only env vars accidentally exposed via NEXT_PUBLIC_. Returns 0-100 score, per-finding kind/severity/path/line/redacted-evidence/recommendation, and a Venice plain-English verdict. Dual input: {repo: 'owner/name'} for public GitHub or {files: [{path, content}, …]} for private / agent-workspace use.
