  • [x] This is a single feature request (not multiple features)

Problem Statement

I accidentally checked a secret in (it wasn't in .env - it was in a different file). Pre-commit hooks to block this are best practice.

Proposed Solution

  • Default .pre-commit-config.yaml with gitleaks/detect-secrets when initializing repos
  • Warning when staging files that match secret patterns
