…ntials file) Hybrid of duanddqn/psst sqlite-keystore approach with stricter security: - keystore.db stores vault key encrypted with PBKDF2(100k) + AES-256-GCM - Password must come from PSST_PASSWORD env var — never persisted to disk - No ~/.psst/credentials file (unlike upstream fork) - New command: psst passwd (change keystore password via env vars) - config.json records keyBackend: sqlite for vault discovery

Problem
When
PSST_PASSWORDis set (keychain fallback), runningpsst run echo $PSST_PASSWORDprints the master password in plaintext. The shell expands
$PSST_PASSWORDbefore psstsees the argument, and since the vault may be empty (no secrets to mask), the value
passes through unmasked.
Fix
Always add
PSST_PASSWORDto the masking list in bothexec.tsandrun.ts,regardless of whether the vault contains secrets.
