pass-mgr Manage OpenClaw agent credentials (usernames/secrets). Use when storing, retrieving, listing, generating, or removing credentials for an agent. Trigger on requests about saving or fetching usernames, passwords, tokens, API keys, or other secrets. MUST call pass_mgr via the pcexec tool.

Pass Manager

Purpose

Use pass_mgr to store and retrieve agent-scoped credentials (username/secret pairs) and generate secrets.

Mandatory safety rule

Always invoke pass_mgr through the pcexec tool. Do NOT run pass_mgr directly.

Commands (run via pcexec)

  • List keys for current agent

    • pass_mgr list
  • Get username for a key

    • pass_mgr get-username <key>
  • Get secret for a key

    • pass_mgr get-secret <key>
  • Set a key entry (username optional)

    • pass_mgr set <key> --secret <secret> [--username <username>]
  • Remove a key entry

    • pass_mgr unset <key>
  • Generate a random secret for a key (prints secret)

    • pass_mgr generate <key>

Usage notes

  • Treat all outputs as sensitive. Never echo secrets.
  • When the agent needs credentials to access a resource, first try list to see if a matching key already exists before asking the user.
  • Prefer generate when the user wants a new secret or password.
  • Use set to store both username and secret in one step.
  • Use get-username and get-secret for retrieval.
  • Storing can be explicit (user asks) or proactive after the agent successfully registers/creates an account.
  • Secrets should be fetched and used immediately in a command, not displayed (e.g., xxx_cli login --user $(pass_mgr get-username some_key) --pass $(pass_mgr get-secret some_key)).

Examples (pcexec)

  • Store credentials

    • pcexec: pass_mgr set github --username alice --secret <secret>
  • Retrieve username

    • pcexec: pass_mgr get-username github
  • Retrieve secret

    • pcexec: pass_mgr get-secret github
  • Generate secret

    • pcexec: pass_mgr generate github
  • Delete entry

    • pcexec: pass_mgr unset github
