| a human, from a terminal | one central store, sourced by the login shell |
| a spawner (bridge, CI, IDE) | `{env:…}`, with the spawner injecting the variable |
For the human case prefer **`{file:…}` with a workspace-relative path**, kept in a gitignored
`.secrets/` directory beside `opencode.json`:
**For the human case, keep every credential in one file the login shell sources.** Here that file
is `${SHARED_ENV}/tools/secrets.sh`, sourced from `${SHARED_ENV}/.ltms`, kept at mode 600 and never
committed. `opencode.json` then names variables and holds no values:
```json
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer {file:.secrets/api-token}" }
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer {env:CONTEXT7_TOKEN}" }
```
Verified: opencode resolves relative `{file:}` paths against the project root, so this needs no
shell setup at all — no rc export leaking the secret to every process, no direnv dependency.
Both routes end at the same syntax, and that is the point. The file does not change when a human
launches opencode instead of the bridge.
**The catch, and state it out loud:** `.secrets/` is gitignored, so a peer running in a git worktree
does **not** get it — worktrees receive tracked files only, the same rule that makes `opencode.json`
itself worth committing. Spawned peers must therefore be fed through `{env:…}` by whatever launches
them. Check the variable *names* match: a spawner often injects under a different name than your
shell uses, and the config has no fallback.
**`{file:…}` also works, and this project moved away from it.** Opencode resolves a relative
`{file:}` path against the project root, so a gitignored `.secrets/` beside `opencode.json` needs no
shell setup at all. It did not fail; the problem is that it makes a second copy of the token. The
same secret then lives in two places, and the copy you forget is the one that leaks or goes stale.
One store with many references is easier to rotate and to audit.
**One catch survives either choice, so state it out loud:** what a human's shell exports does not
reach a spawned peer, and neither does a gitignored `.secrets/` — a git worktree receives tracked
files only. Spawned peers must be fed through `{env:…}` by whatever launches them. Check the
variable *names* match: a spawner often injects under a different name than your shell uses, and
the config has no fallback. In this repo the bridge goes further: it neutralizes a worktree's
`opencode.json`, so a member cannot inherit the primary's credentials by accident.
