Fidelius is a Mac app that moves your API keys and credential files (.p8 keys, service account JSON) into iCloud Keychain, grouped by project and behind Touch ID. Apple stores, encrypts and syncs them between your Macs; Fidelius has no server of its own. Run `accio myproject npm run dev` and the command gets its keys as environment variables and files as temporary paths, noenv needed. If your coding agent runs it and your app prints a key, accio swaps the value for its name.
