How vaults work
When an agent makes an HTTPS request and no server-stored secret matches the target host, the gateway checks if the user has a paired vault. If so, it asks the vault for a credential by domain, injects it into the request, and caches it briefly in memory.Vaults vs server-stored secrets
| Server-stored secrets | Vault credentials | |
|---|---|---|
| Storage | Encrypted in database | Stay in your password manager |
| Priority | Checked first | Fallback when no DB secret matches |
| Setup | Add via dashboard | One-time pairing with the vault app |
| Rotation | Manual update in dashboard | Automatic (always reads latest from vault) |
