How-to
Keep secrets in the environment .env
Store MCP credentials and other secrets beside the env — never in cvm.yaml.
- Open the editor:
cvm edit work # or, with an active env: cvm edit - Add KEY=VALUE lines (standard dotenv conventions).
- Use / open / run load those variables into the process. Export only records the names.
Do not put
PATH, CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR, or CVM_* keys in .env — they are ignored.
