`agenix` is a commandline tool for managing secrets encrypted with your existing SSH keys. This project also includes the NixOS module `age` for adding encrypted secrets into the Nix store and decrypting them.

## Problem and solution
|
||||
|
||||
All files in the Nix store are readable by any system user, so it is not a suitable place for including cleartext secrets. Many existing tools (like NixOps deployment.keys) deploy secrets separately from `nixos-rebuild`, making deployment, caching, and auditing more difficult. Out-of-band secret management is also less reproducible.
