ApiVault CLI terminal interface and command execution — The apivault CLI running with zero-disk secret injection

#Zero-Disk Secret Process Injection

The initial release of the apivault CLI client enables zero-disk secret management for developer machines and CI/CD pipelines.

ShellShell

# Install globally via npm:
npm install -g apivault-cli

# Login with web browser authorization:
apivault login

# Run your application with injected secrets:
apivault run -- npm run dev

#Zero-Disk Secret Injection

With apivault run, secrets are injected directly into child process environment memory. No plaintext .env files are ever written to your local hard drive.

Important

The CLI stores authentication tokens with strict 0600 file permission isolation under ~/.apivault/token.json.
