When you git clone this repo, your API keys and passwords are not included.
They live in:
- Local runs: your local
.envfile (not committed; see.gitignore) - GitHub Actions: repo secrets (Settings -> Secrets and variables -> Actions)
Important:
- GitHub does not let you view secret values after you save them. Keep your keys in a password manager / notes so you can paste them again later.
