Claude Never Sees Your Secrets

The MCP server is designed so Claude only accesses metadata—secret names, providers, and health status. The actual secret values are never exposed to the AI. You enter and manage values directly in the HLOS dashboard.

Available Tools

Once connected, Claude can use these HLOS tools to help manage your secrets:

list_secrets

List secrets with metadata (names only, never values)

check_secret_exists

Verify if a secret is configured in your space

get_secret_info

Get detailed metadata about a secret

suggest_missing_secrets

Analyze code for missing environment variables

create_secret

Request secret creation (requires user approval)

check_health

Secret health dashboard with rotation warnings

Example Prompts

Try asking Claude these questions once HLOS is connected:

"What secrets do I have configured for my project?"

"Does my project have a Stripe API key?"

"Analyze this code and tell me what secrets I need"

"What's the health status of my API keys?"

"Help me set up a new database connection secret"
