| 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. | For documentation authors and small teams checking references locally or in CI. Start with a specific file and interpret findings; it does not establish complete site or login functionality. |
