ancha secrets

ancha secrets manages the variables your agents receive when they run in your hosted workspace, such as OPENAI_API_KEY. Values come from your current shell’s environment, never from command arguments, and the CLI never prints them. Sign in first with ancha login, or set ANCHA_SERVER_URL and ANCHA_API_KEY.

ancha secrets set

ancha secrets set [options] <names...>

Argument	Description
`names`	Variable names to copy from this environment, e.g. OPENAI_API_KEY

export OPENAI_API_KEY=...   # in your shell, not in the command
ancha secrets set OPENAI_API_KEY

Output

Set OPENAI_API_KEY. Workspace variables: OPENAI_API_KEY. Restarting the workspace processes; give it a few seconds.

Names are upper snake case, up to 64 characters. The workspace restarts its processes to pick up the change.

ancha secrets list

ancha secrets list [options]

Prints the names, one per line, never the values.

ancha secrets unset

ancha secrets unset [options] <name>

Output

Removed OPENAI_API_KEY. Remaining: none.

Errors

Message	Exit	Cause
`secrets live in a hosted workspace`	2	Not signed in, or the server is local.
`OPENAI_API_KEY is not set in this shell`	2	Export the variable before `set`.
`secret names are UPPER_SNAKE_CASE, up to 64 characters`	2	Rename the variable.

See Secrets for which agents receive them.
