Secrets infrastructureStart

Install and initialize

Build the binary, initialize an owner and recovery recipient, and verify the vault before storing secrets.

Install and initialize — contract and behavior

  • Initialization creates vault metadata sealed to the chosen owner and recovery recipients.
  • gpg, openssl, and shasum are runtime dependencies because Skarbiec delegates cryptography and integrity operations.
  • The owner private half stays in the local keyring; a separate recovery recipient protects against loss of the daily identity.
  • Keep the vault, audit journal, and recipient key material under OS-level ownership and backup controls.
