# @suaveplan/api-secrets-env — SecretsLike adapter backed by process.env / Bun.env with per-plugin allowed-keys enforcement. Reads from an injectable source function so tests never mutate the real environment; an optional prefix scopes lookups for multi-tenant single-host deployments.
Stage-4 `SecretsLike` adapter backed by `process.env` / `Bun.env` with
per-plugin allowed-keys enforcement.
The simplest secrets source: read from the host's environment. Suitable
for local development, single-host deployments, container orchestrators
that inject secrets as env vars, and anywhere the operator already has
tooling around env-var injection.
Per-plugin allow-list keeps each plugin scoped to its manifest-declared
secrets — a worker or untrusted plugin cannot enumerate or read any env
var beyond what its `manifest.secrets[]` declared. Values never appear
in logs or errors — only names.

## Install
```bash
bun add @suaveplan/api-secrets-env
```
## Usage
```ts
import { createEnvSecrets } from "@suaveplan/api-secrets-env";
const secrets = createEnvSecrets({
allowedKeys: ["STRIPE_SECRET_KEY", "JWT_SIGNING_KEY"],
});
const key = await secrets.require("STRIPE_SECRET_KEY");
```
### Prefix for multi-tenant single-host deployments
```ts
const secrets = createEnvSecrets({
allowedKeys: ["API_KEY", "WEBHOOK_SECRET"],
prefix: "BILLING_",
// Reads BILLING_API_KEY, BILLING_WEBHOOK_SECRET from env.
});
```
### Manifest-driven allow-list
The companion `buildEnvSecretDescriptors` builder lets a plugin derive
its `manifest.secrets[]` and the adapter's `allowedKeys` from a single
declaration so they cannot drift:
```ts
import {
buildEnvSecretDescriptors,
descriptorAllowedKeys,
createEnvSecrets,
} from "@suaveplan/api-secrets-env";
const descriptors = buildEnvSecretDescriptors([
"STRIPE_SECRET_KEY",
{ name: "OPTIONAL_WEBHOOK_KEY", required: false },
]);
const secrets = createEnvSecrets({
allowedKeys: descriptorAllowedKeys(descriptors),
});
// `descriptors` goes on the plugin manifest's `secrets[]`.
```
## Fail-fast contract
The plugin manifest declares each required secret with
`{ name, required: true }`. The host's installer reads the manifest's
`secrets[]` and, at install or start time, calls
`enforceRequiredSecrets` (from `@suaveplan/api-secrets`) against the
adapter's `list()`. Any `required: true` secret missing from the host's
env triggers `SECRETS.SECRET_REQUIRED_MISSING_AT_START`, and the
installer refuses to install / refuses to start.
This adapter contributes to that contract by:
1. enumerating the plugin's permitted names via `list()` — the same
names the manifest declares;
2. returning `undefined` from `get()` for a permitted-but-absent name
so `enforceRequiredSecrets` can detect it;
3. throwing `SECRETS_ENV.KEY_NOT_FOUND` from `require()` so a plugin
that chooses to defer the check past install also fails loudly.
## Allowed-keys enforcement
Every `get` / `require` checks the allow-list BEFORE consulting the env
source. A non-permitted name throws
`SECRETS_ENV.KEY_NOT_PERMITTED` and never reads from the snapshot —
the env source can be expensive or have side effects without affecting
this ordering. `list()` returns the frozen `allowedKeys` array, so the
adapter never surfaces any name outside the plugin's manifest.
## Secret-value redaction
Secret VALUES never appear in error messages, log lines, or telemetry
emitted by this package — only NAMES. Errors carry the name on
`error.context.name` for diagnostic surfaces; the value (when one was
resolved) never leaves the call site.
## API
| Export | Subpath | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `createEnvSecrets` | `./adapter` | Build a `SecretsLike` over env. |
| `CreateEnvSecretsOptions` | `./adapter` | Option-bag type. |
| `buildEnvSecretDescriptors` | `./descriptor-builder` | Compact → `SecretDescriptor[]`. |
| `descriptorAllowedKeys` | `./descriptor-builder` | Extract names for `allowedKeys`. |
| `SECRETS_ENV_CODES` | `./error-codes` | Frozen `SECRETS_ENV.*` code registry. |
| `SecretsEnvError` | `./error-codes` | Thrown by every failure mode. |
## Conformance
Passes `runSecretsConformance` from `@suaveplan/api-secrets/testing`
unchanged — see `src/adapter/adapter.spec-conformance.test.ts`.
