Summary

A GitHub Actions-style secrets and variables store, so E2E tests (and any other command an agent or user runs) can read credentials from the environment without .env files in the repo. The names and expression syntax match GitHub Actions, so the same variable works in CI and in Manager.

How it works

  1. Store. Settings → Secrets and variables holds global values; a repo's Secrets tool holds repo values, optionally scoped to a named environment (e.g. e2e). Secrets are encrypted (encryptSecret) and write-only; variables are plain text. Precedence: environment > repo > global. Names follow GitHub's rules and reject Manager-reserved names.
  2. Map. The trusted .ocm/project.json gains environment and env:
    {
      "version": 1,
      "environment": "e2e",
      "env": {
        "OPENAI_API_KEY": "${{ secrets.OPENAI_API_KEY }}",
        "BASE_URL": "${{ vars.BASE_URL }}"
      }
    }
    Both fields are part of the trust hash, so changing the mapping requires re-approval and an untrusted file injects nothing. Files without them hash as before, so existing trust survives. The trust review lists each mapped variable and its expression.
  3. Inject. RepoEnvService.resolveForDirectory resolves the repo and approved mapping for any directory (including OpenCode, schedule and forge worktrees outside the repo folder) and never throws. It feeds:
    • agent shells via /api/internal/shell-env (replaces /git-credentials/gh-env) and the ocm-gh-env plugin;
    • the sandbox shell plan, which is now the only source of the guest environment (the shim forwards only names pinned in OCM_SANDBOX_FORWARD_ENV);
    • terminals, project actions and setup commands (TerminalService.create).
  4. Mask. Secret values in completed agent tool results are replaced with ***.

E2E isolation

e2e/server.sh now starts the backend with env -i, only the keys the suite defines, and bun --no-env-file from a scratch directory, so local .env files and host credentials cannot leak into the E2E run.

Known limits

  • An agent that can run the tests can still print injected values; masking covers exact matches in recorded tool output only (not encoded/partial values, error results or terminal output).
  • Values forwarded into the sandbox appear in msb exec -e arguments in the host process list.
  • Rotating AUTH_SECRET makes stored secrets unreadable.
  • Missing secret references are not yet surfaced in the UI.

Type of Change

  • Bug fix
  • New feature
  • Refactor
  • Documentation

Checklist

  • Code follows project style (no comments, named imports)
  • TypeScript types are properly defined
  • Tests added/updated (80% coverage target)
  • pnpm lint passes locally
  • pnpm typecheck passes locally

Tests

  • Backend: secrets store and routes, expression parsing, trust hash, resolver (including a real git worktree), /shell-env, plugin injection and masking, sandbox plan, terminal env, and the shell shim with a fake msb.

  • Frontend: Secrets manager, trust list, navigation wiring.

  • E2E (e2e/repo-secrets.spec.ts), against a real Manager and OpenCode server with the shared mock LLM provider:

    • mapped values are absent from OpenCode shells while .ocm/project.json is untrusted and present once trusted;
    • repo terminals receive them;
    • an agent shell tool call that prints the secret is recorded as ***, never the value;
    • the Secrets panel lists secrets by name without revealing values.

    Each was confirmed to fail when the behavior is disabled (masking off, plugin injection off, terminal env dropped).

  • e2e/mockProvider.ts can now script tool-call turns and bind an ephemeral port.

Validation

  • pnpm typecheck, pnpm lint — clean (0 errors; warnings unchanged from main)
  • Frontend Vitest — 2752 passed
  • Backend Vitest — 3731 passed; test/routes/opencode-proxy.test.ts afterAll hook timeout also fails on main
  • Bun suites (internal-sandbox, src/routes/repos.test.ts) — 46 passed
  • Playwright — 28 passed, twice

Follow-ups

Placeholder secrets hidden even from agents (OM-84), ocm secret CLI / push to GitHub / access policy (OM-85), and encrypting existing plaintext credentials in settings (OM-86).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added global and repository-level management for secrets and variables, including separate views, editing, deletion, and environment-specific entries.
    • Repository project configuration can now map environment variables to secrets and variables. After the configuration is trusted, these values are available in agent shells and terminals.
    • Secret values are masked in completed agent tool output. Trust reviews now show environment settings and mappings.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved validation feedback for repository configuration and environment entries.

The E2E backend inherited the caller's environment and Bun auto-loaded .env
files from the repo root, so local credentials and host variables could leak
into the run. server.sh now launches the backend with env -i, passing PATH and
only the keys from createServerEnv (E2E_SERVER_ENV_KEYS), runs bun with
--no-env-file, and starts it from a scratch directory with a frontend symlink
so no .env file is in reach.
…hells and terminals

Add a GitHub Actions-style store for secrets and variables so tests can read
credentials from the environment without .env files in the repo.

- secrets table keyed by kind, repo (NULL for global) and environment;
  secrets are encrypted with encryptSecret and write-only, variables are plain
  text. Names follow GitHub's rules and reject Manager-reserved names.
- Global (/api/secrets, /api/variables) and repo
  (/api/repos/:id/secrets|variables) routes.
- The trusted .ocm/project.json gains environment and env fields that map
  names to ${{ secrets.X }} / ${{ vars.X }} expressions. Both are part of the
  trust hash; files without them hash as before, so existing trust survives.
- RepoEnvService.resolveForDirectory resolves the repo and approved mapping
  for any directory, including worktrees outside the repo folder, with
  environment > repo > global precedence. It never throws.
- /api/internal/shell-env replaces /git-credentials/gh-env and feeds the
  ocm-gh-env plugin, the sandbox shell plan and TerminalService.create.
- The plugin masks injected secret values as *** in completed tool results.
- The sandbox shell plan is now the only source of the guest environment: the
  plugin pins OCM_SANDBOX_FORWARD_ENV and the shim forwards only those names.
Add a Secrets manager for global values (Settings > Secrets and variables) and
repo values (Secrets tool panel and dialog), with environment scoping,
write-only secrets and copyable ${{ }} references. The trust review for
.ocm/project.json lists the environment and each mapped variable with the
expression it resolves from.
… panel

Against a real Manager and OpenCode server, with the shared mock
OpenAI-compatible provider:

- mapped values are absent from OpenCode shells while .ocm/project.json is
  untrusted and present once it is trusted;
- repo terminals receive them;
- an agent shell tool call that prints the secret is recorded as ***;
- the Secrets panel lists secrets by name without revealing values.

The shared mock provider can now script tool-call turns (setResponder) and
bind an ephemeral port (startMockProvider() exposes port), so specs no
longer have to reserve a fixed port.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to cffe5

The secrets feature looks sound overall. One small residual risk remains: the secret-saving query uses syntax that needs a reasonably recent SQLite, which is very likely met by the Bun runtime in use. Naming the conflict target explicitly would remove that dependency cheaply.

Name the conflict target in the upsert.

The secrets table has no column-based unique constraint. Its only uniqueness guarantee is the expression index idx_secrets_scope on (kind, COALESCE(repo_id, 0), environment, name). A bare ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE works only on SQLite 3.35 or later. On older SQLite versions it is a syntax error, so every set call fails. Name the conflict target explicitly so the upsert matches the expression index and works on all supported versions.

Proposed fix
-         ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE SET value = excluded.value, updated_at = excluded.updated_at`,
+         ON CONFLICT(kind, COALESCE(repo_id, 0), environment, name) DO UPDATE SET value = excluded.value, updated_at = excluded.updated_at`,
