E2E Encrypted Secrets for AI Agents: How MeowPass + MCP Keeps Your Keys Safe

You're using Claude Code or Cursor to build your app. You ask it to deploy. It needs your Stripe key, database URL, and AWS credentials. Do you paste them into the chat?

Don't. Every secret you paste into an LLM prompt is potentially logged, cached, or leaked through context windows. MeowPass solves this with MCP integration and redacted mode.

The Problem: Secrets in LLM Context

When an AI agent runs npm run deploy, it needs environment variables. The naive approach: paste your .env into the chat. The agent sees every secret in plaintext. Those secrets are now in:

• The LLM's context window
• Potentially the provider's training data (depending on terms)
• Your conversation history
• Any logging or monitoring systems

MeowPass MCP: 14 Tools for AI Agents

MeowPass ships an MCP server (@meowlabs/meowpass-mcp) with 14 tools. AI agents can:

• List vaults and secret names (no values)
• Detect drift between local .env and vault
• Inject secrets into subprocesses without exposing values
• Scaffold secret placeholders for new services

Redacted Mode: The Key Innovation

The meowpass_run_redacted MCP tool injects secrets into a subprocess but scrubs all secret values from the output before returning to the LLM:

You: "Deploy this with production secrets"

Claude Code:
  → meowpass_run_redacted(vault: "my-app", command: "npm run deploy")
  → Result: {
      "secrets_injected": 12,
      "exit_code": 0,
      "stdout": "Deployed to [REDACTED:AWS_SECRET]...",
      "values_exposed": false
    }

The AI orchestrated the deployment. The secrets were injected. But the LLM never saw a single secret value.

Setup (2 Minutes)

mp apikey create claude-mcp
claude mcp add meowpass -e MEOWPASS_API_KEY=mp_your_key -- npx -y @meowlabs/meowpass-mcp

Security Model

• API keys have scopes — create read-only keys for agents
• meowpass_list_secrets returns names only, never values
• Every MCP access is logged in the audit trail
• Revoke compromised keys instantly: mp apikey revoke <id>
