redshift（redshift 命令行）

Redshift

Decentralized secret management via the redshift CLI. Secrets are client-side encrypted (NIP-59 Gift Wrap) and stored on Nostr relays — no central server.

Project homepage: https://redshiftapp.com

Key concepts

• Project (-p): a project slug (e.g. backend, myapp)
• Config/Environment (-c): an environment slug (e.g. dev, staging, production)
• redshift.yaml: per-directory project config created by redshift setup
• When -p/-c are omitted, Redshift reads from redshift.yaml in the current directory

Security considerations

• Never pass secret values directly on the command line in shared/logged environments — prefer redshift secrets set interactively or pipe from stdin
• Use REDSHIFT_NSEC / REDSHIFT_BUNKER env vars for CI/CD rather than CLI flags
• Avoid redshift serve --host 0.0.0.0 unless you intend to expose the web UI to the network — default 127.0.0.1 is localhost-only
• All encryption is client-side; secrets never leave the device unencrypted
• Private keys are stored in the system keychain, not in plaintext config files

Authentication

redshift login                    # Interactive (recommended)
redshift login --nsec nsec1...    # Direct private key (use env var in CI instead)
redshift login --bunker "bunker://pubkey?relay=wss://relay.example&secret=xxx"  # NIP-46 (ALWAYS quote the URL)
redshift login --connect          # Generate NostrConnect URI for bunker app
redshift me                       # Check current identity
redshift logout                   # Clear credentials

CI/CD: set REDSHIFT_NSEC or REDSHIFT_BUNKER env vars instead of redshift login. These should be stored in your CI platform's secret management (e.g. GitHub Actions secrets), never hardcoded.

Project setup

redshift setup                                  # Interactive
redshift setup -p myapp -c production           # Non-interactive
redshift setup --no-interactive -p app -c dev   # Strict non-interactive

Creates redshift.yaml with project, environment, and relay list.

Secrets

# List all
redshift secrets                          # Redacted values
redshift secrets --raw                    # Show plaintext values
redshift secrets --json                   # JSON output
redshift secrets --only-names             # Names only

# Get
redshift secrets get API_KEY
redshift secrets get API_KEY --plain      # Raw value, no formatting
redshift secrets get API_KEY --copy       # Copy to clipboard
redshift secrets get KEY1 KEY2            # Multiple keys

# Set
redshift secrets set API_KEY sk_live_xxx
redshift secrets set API_KEY '123' DB_URL 'postgres://...'    # Multiple at once

# Delete
redshift secrets delete OLD_KEY
redshift secrets delete KEY1 KEY2 -y      # Skip confirmation

# Download
redshift secrets download ./secrets.json                     # JSON (default)
redshift secrets download --format=env --no-file             # Print .env to stdout
redshift secrets download --format=env ./secrets.env         # Save as .env file
# Formats: json, env, yaml, docker, env-no-quotes

# Upload
redshift secrets upload secrets.env

Override project/environment on any secrets command with -p / -c:

redshift secrets -p backend -c production --raw
redshift secrets set -p myapp -c staging FEATURE_FLAG true

Run with secrets injected

Important: Only run commands the user has explicitly requested. Never construct arbitrary commands to pass to redshift run. Always confirm the command with the user before executing.

redshift run -- npm start
redshift run -- python app.py
redshift run --command "npm start && npm test"
redshift run -p myapp -c prod -- docker-compose up

# Mount secrets to a file instead of env vars
redshift run --mount secrets.json -- cat secrets.json
redshift run --mount secrets.env --mount-format env -- cat secrets.env

# Fallback for offline mode
redshift run --fallback ./fallback.json -- npm start
redshift run --fallback-only -- npm start          # Read only from fallback

# Preserve existing env values for specific keys
redshift run --preserve-env PORT,HOST -- npm start

Configuration

redshift configure                    # Show config
redshift configure --all              # Show all saved options
redshift configure get project        # Get specific option
redshift configure set project=myapp  # Set option
redshift configure unset project      # Remove option
redshift configure reset --yes        # Reset to initial state

Web UI

redshift serve                        # http://127.0.0.1:3000 (localhost only)
redshift serve --port 8080 --open     # Custom port, auto-open browser
redshift serve --host 0.0.0.0         # ⚠️ Exposes to network — use with caution

Global flags

Environment variables

Important notes

• Always quote bunker URLs (--bunker "bunker://...") — shell interprets & otherwise
• Secret values with spaces or special chars should be quoted
• Complex values (objects/arrays) are auto-JSON-stringified when injected by redshift run
