Secure Vault tools (7)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
audit_secret_accessView an audit trail of who accessed which secrets over a time range.
get_agent_tokenIssue a short-lived, scoped token for an agent to use a secret. The agent receives an opaque token ID — never the raw secret. Use inject_secret_to_request to apply the token to an outbound request.
health_checkReturns server health, uptime, version, and call stats
inject_secret_to_requestReturn a request object with the secret injected. Pass a token_id obtained from get_agent_token and a request template with a {{SECRET}} placeholder. The server substitutes the real secret — the agent never handles the raw value.
rotate_secretsRotate all secrets for a given service. Old values are overwritten, and all outstanding tokens for those secrets are invalidated.
scan_config_for_leaksScan a config text for exposed secrets — API keys, tokens, passwords, private keys. Uses 12 regex patterns covering AWS, GitHub, OpenAI, Anthropic, Slack, Stripe, and generic credentials.
store_secretStore an encrypted secret with optional rotation policy. Value is encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM.

What its tools let an agent do: 7 read
Install Secure Vault in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code
Runs npx -y secure-vault-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.
claude mcp add secure-vault -- npx -y secure-vault-mcp
What the publisher says
From the Secure Vault repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
secure-vault-mcp
MCP server for agent-native secrets management. 24,008 secrets have been found in MCP config files on public GitHub. This server solves that.
Agents need secrets to call APIs, but they shouldn't see raw values. secure-vault-mcp stores secrets encrypted with AES-256-GCM, issues short-lived scoped tokens, and injects secrets into requests server-side so the agent never handles plaintext credentials.
Install
npx secure-vault-mcpClaude Desktop
Add to claudedesktopconfig.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"secure-vault": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["secure-vault-mcp"]
}
}
}From source
git clone https://github.com/mdfifty50-boop/secure-vault-mcp.git
cd secure-vault-mcp
npm install
node src/index.jsTools
store_secret
Store an encrypted secret with optional rotation policy.
getagenttoken
Issue a short-lived, scoped token. The agent receives an opaque token ID, never the raw secret.
rotate_secrets
Rotate all secrets for a service. Old tokens are invalidated.
auditsecretaccess
View who accessed what secrets over a time range.
scanconfigfor_leaks
Scan config text for exposed secrets. Detects AWS keys, GitHub tokens, OpenAI/Anthropic keys, Slack tokens, Stripe keys, private key blocks, bearer tokens, and generic credentials using 12 regex patterns.
injectsecretto_request
Return a request with the secret injected server-side. The agent provides a template with {{SECRET}} placeholder and a valid token ID.
Resources
Usage Pattern
1. store_secret — store credentials at setup time
2. get_agent_token — agent requests a scoped, time-limited token
3. inject_secret_to_request — inject secret into API call template
4. rotate_secrets — rotate when needed, old tokens auto-invalidate
5. scan_config_for_leaks — check config files before committing
6. audit_secret_access — review access trailSecurity Model

- Is Secure Vault MCP server safe?
- Mostly: it is graded B (78/100). Read the Secure Vault safety report
- How do I install Secure Vault?
