Welcome to RunEnv

RunEnv manages configuration values centrally and can deliver them to supported application processes at runtime instead of relying on committed .env files.

🚀

The RunEnv Philosophy

For no-file delivery, runenv run injects values into the child process environment without creating a .env file. Download, offline-cache, and secret-file workflows have different storage boundaries.

Why RunEnv?

Zero-Disk Architecture

Runtime injection avoids creating a .env file and reduces the risk of committing resolved values to source control.

Enterprise Isolation

Hierarchical namespaces and scoped access policies for multi-team organizations.

Transit Engine

Encryption-as-a-Service for your application data using AES-256-GCM, RSA, and ECDSA.

Dynamic Secrets

Short-lived, just-in-time credentials for databases and cloud providers.

Developer Integrations

CLI, SDK, VS Code, Desktop, and GitHub Actions guidance in one documentation surface.

Security Model

Encryption boundaries, role-based access concepts, and safe operating practices.

Getting Started

Start with the Quickstarts to install the CLI, authenticate, link a project and environment, and run a supported Node.js, Python, or Go workflow.
