| Best use | Best for an individual developer or small team tracing a bug, adding a test, or implementing a bounded change with a reviewable plan and diff. Avoid broad production access or unscoped Auto-approve, and do not treat it as a replacement for tests, Git, or human review. | Ideal for a developer or small platform team that wants encrypted configuration beside code with readable Git diffs. Use it for YAML, JSON, ENV and INI files and tightly scoped CI or runtime access. It is not a replacement for dynamic secret issuance or source-system credential rotation. | Best for an individual developer or small team that wants an AI agent to complete an inspectable task in a working copy: understand files, make a bounded change, and run a test. Start with manual approval and scope the folder and tools. Do not give it broad access to production or sensitive data. |
