Delete Your .env File.

A project holds the keys for one app. The same name can live in several projects with different values: STRIPE_KEY in myapp can be your test key and in billing-api your live key. accio myapp gets the ones in myapp, so nothing gets mixed up and you never edit a .env to switch. The free version has the shared project, and Pro adds as many projects as you need.

Keys every project needs, like an OpenAI key you use everywhere. accio myapp gets the keys in shared plus the keys in myapp. If both have a key with the same name, the one in myapp wins. accio list myapp shows which is which.

In your iCloud Keychain, the encrypted store built into macOS, the same place your Mac keeps Wi-Fi and website passwords. Not in a file in your project, and not on a fidelius server. There isn't one.

Your keys reach every Mac signed in to your iCloud account, with Apple's end-to-end encryption. Your Pro license and backup key sync the same way, so you enter them once. On a new Mac, fidelius waits for your keys to arrive before you change anything.

No. Password managers keep logins you type into websites. fidelius keeps the keys your code needs, like API keys, tokens, database URLs and .p8 files, grouped by project, and hands them to commands as environment variables.

Most tools don't need one: run them with accio myapp <command>. For the few that only read a file, such as Docker Compose's env_file, Export .env writes one when you ask. accio export --example writes a .env.example with names only, for teammates and agents.

Yes, if it sets out to. Masking catches accidental prints, like printenv or a verbose curl, and the instructions fidelius gives agents tell them not to print values. An agent that wants a value can still find a way through a command it runs. What agents see in the Help explains the details.

Any agent that runs shell commands. fidelius sets up Claude Code, Codex and Gemini CLI in one click, and gives you a prompt to paste into any other.

No. accio reads from your Mac's Keychain, so it runs on your Macs. Keep CI secrets in your CI provider.

Not through fidelius. Your keys sync only between Macs signed in to your iCloud account. To tell a teammate which keys a project needs, send them a .env.example.

Unlimited projects for $24, paid once. It covers every Mac signed in to your Apple ID and every fidelius 1 update. Payment and the license key come from Polar.

Nothing. Every project you have stays readable, editable and usable through accio, whether it came from sync, a backup or an old license. Pro only lets you create new projects besides shared.

The App Store requires the App Sandbox, which would stop fidelius from installing accio and writing your agents' instruction files. fidelius is signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple.
