Redactor catches API keys, tokens, and PII at the three moments you handle them — the clipboard, the AI prompt, the commit — on-device, before they ever leak.

Redactor sits in the three places you handle secrets without thinking — the clipboard, the AI prompt, the commit — and turns each one into a small, blameless nudge. Catch the key, see what it was and why it matters, keep moving. The habit builds itself.
A blocked build teaches you the tool is annoying. A nudge at the moment you'd slip teaches you the thing — so next time you catch it yourself.
The instant you copy a credential, Redactor names it — what it is, what it grants, why it matters — and offers a one-click redact. No build to fail, no commit blocked, no shame. The lesson lands exactly where you'd have leaked, and it sticks.
Grants repo access until it's revoked. Don't paste it into a chat, a ticket, or a commit.
Paste code, an error, a connection string into Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor and it's already clean. Realistic fakes keep the values believable, so the model still reasons over a real-looking string and gives you a real answer — then Restore flips the originals back into the reply. In Claude Code and Cursor, the built-in MCP server does it in the loop. You just talk to the agent. And in the browser, the Redactor extension scrubs prompts to ChatGPT, Claude & Gemini before they leave the page — same engine, Chrome Web Store listing on the way.
Install the hook and Redactor scans your staged changes on every commit, flagging anything that looks like a secret — value masked, so it never lands in your terminal or CI logs. By default it just warns and lets you through: a nudge, not a blocker you'll learn to --no-verify around. Want the wall? Add --strict and the same check fails the commit instead.
Non-blocking by default — the commit went through. You just got a nudge in time to fix it.
