API-pilot – deterministic API key resolution with runtime validation
Deterministic fallback order (ENV → .env → vault) plus an opt-in validation mode and a strict CI-friendly option is a practical combo I wish I'd had in several projects. The doctor CLI that lists found keys and minimal provider probes (e.g., GET /v1/models for OpenAI) is a nice touch — useful for catching bad tokens before a pipeline runs. It’s not reinventing secret managers, but the zero-deps, stdlib-only approach and CI strictness make it an immediately usable tool for small teams.
