maisecrets
Free, open-source plugin that swaps secrets and personal data for placeholders before AI models see them
A free, open-source plugin for Claude Code and Codex that detects and masks secrets and personal data on your machine, keeping sensitive values away from AI
Overview
maisecrets is a free, open-source plugin for Claude Code and Codex that protects sensitive information by detecting secrets and personal data before they reach AI models. It keeps the real values in your local vault and sends only placeholders to the model, so your passwords, API keys, and personal details never leave your machine.
The plugin catches email addresses, phone numbers, API tokens, private keys, passwords, IBANs, card numbers, and other personal data in prompts, files, and command output. It uses fixed detection rules rather than language models, ensuring high precision with minimal false positives. When a tool or command needs the actual value, maisecrets inserts it on your machine right before execution, then masks the output before it reaches the model again.
maisecrets runs entirely locally with no telemetry, no accounts, and no server dependencies. It works across macOS, Windows, and Linux, and is licensed under Apache 2.0, with the source code available on GitHub.
