Secrets-LE: Zero Hassle Secret Detection

Find hardcoded credentials across your workspace, then redact them in place
API keys, tokens, passwords, private keys — 100% local, nothing leaves your machine

Useful? A star or rating is how other developers find it — ★ GitHub · ★ Open VSX · ★ Marketplace

What it does

Open a workspace, press Ctrl+Alt+S (Cmd+Alt+S on Mac), and every detected secret lands in a results document — grouped by file, with line/column positions pointing at the value itself. Run Secrets-LE: Sanitize Secrets to replace the secrets in the active file with a placeholder. Works in VS Code and in VS Code–based editors like Cursor and VSCodium (installable from Open VSX).

Detection is regex-based over the full text of each file, so it works on any text format — code, configs, .env files, YAML, JSON, logs. It is a pre-commit safety net, not a guarantee: a scanner built on patterns can miss secrets and can flag non-secrets. Review the results.

Install

Where	What you get	Install
VS Code	Detection and in-place sanitising, in your editor	Marketplace
Cursor, VSCodium, Windsurf	The same extension	Open VSX
A terminal or a CI step	The same run over a whole tree, with exit codes	`cargo install secrets-le` · crates.io
Any MCP agent, via Node	`detect_secrets` over stdio	`npx secrets-le-mcp` · npm
Zed	The MCP server as a context server	add it by hand (no listing yet)

Use it from an AI agent

The same engine runs as an MCP server, so an agent can call it directly instead of you running a command.

Editor	How
VS Code 1.101+	Nothing to install — the extension registers `detect_secrets` with agent mode
Zed	No listing yet — add the MCP server by hand
Claude Code	`claude mcp add secrets-le -- npx -y secrets-le-mcp`
Cursor, Windsurf, anything else	point it at `npx secrets-le-mcp`
