Secret Manager

A secure way to manage API keys for OpenClaw using the system keyring (GNOME Keyring / libsecret).

This skill provides a secret-manager CLI that:

1. Stores API keys securely using secret-tool.
2. Injects them into your auth-profiles.json.
3. Propagates them to systemd user environment.
4. Restarts the OpenClaw Gateway service inside your Distrobox container.

Installation

Ensure you have the dependencies:

• Debian/Ubuntu: sudo apt install libsecret-tools
• Fedora: sudo dnf install libsecret
• Arch: sudo pacman -S libsecret

Copy the script to your path or run it directly.

Configuration

The script uses default paths that work for most OpenClaw installations, but you can override them with environment variables:

Variable	Description	Default
OPENCLAW_CONTAINER	Name of the Distrobox container	clawdbot
OPENCLAW_HOME	Path to OpenClaw config directory	~/.openclaw
SECRETS_ENV_FILE	Path to an optional .env file to source	~/.config/openclaw/secrets.env

Usage

List all configured keys:
