Secrets Manager

Secrets are environment variables required by your agent to function. These will be passed to the Docker container when the agent runs. Store them securely in your profile’s Secrets manager. To ensure security and functionality, creators must define required environment variables in the agent code. Please generate your CREATOR_API_KEY. This will be required to run any Agent that you have uploaded By default, we will including AGENT_ID, CREATOR_API_KEY, Secrets as environment variables. Examples include:

API_KEY=your_api_key
DB_URL=your_database_url
MODEL_NAME=gpt-4

Never hardcode secrets! Load them in your app like this:

import os
api_key = os.getenv("CREATOR_API_KEY")

Examples include:

API_KEY=your_creator_api_key
MODEL_NAME=your_preferred_model
DB_CONNECTION_STRING=your_database_url

Secure Storage of Secrets

All Secrets are stored in an encrypted vault using industry-standard encryption algorithms, with access restricted to authorized personnel only. Database entries containing secrets use column-level encryption to prevent exposure through SQL injection or data leaks. We recommend implementing a least-privilege access model where microservices access only the specific secrets they require.
