description	Implements the "in-memory only" secret pattern for Google Cloud production agents.

gcp-production-secret-handler

This skill implements the secure pattern for secret handling used in the dev-signal agent. It ensures sensitive credentials (API keys, client secrets) are fetched from Google Secret Manager directly into local memory, avoiding global environment variables that can be leaked through logs or traces.

Usage

Ask Antigravity to:

• "Implement secure secret handling for my production agent"
• "Use the dev-signal secret pattern"
• "Fetch secrets from Secret Manager into a dictionary"

The Pattern

1. Local Dev: Uses a .env file for fast iteration.
2. Production: Uses the google-cloud-secret-manager SDK to fetch specific versions of secrets.
3. Isolation: Secrets are stored in a Python dictionary (SECRETS) and passed as explicit parameters to toolset constructors or agent initializers.
4. No global env injection: Avoids using os.environ[secret_id] = value.

Python Boilerplate

Refer to the included scripts/env_utils.py for the standard implementation.
