# Introduce Secret Type for Sensitive Data
2+
3+
**Issue**: #TBD
4+
**Related**: [ADR: Secrecy Crate for Sensitive Data](../decisions/secrecy-crate-for-sensitive-data.md)
5+
6+
## Overview
7+
8+
Replace all primitive `String` types used for sensitive data (API tokens, passwords, database credentials) with the industry-standard `secrecy` crate's `Secret<String>` type. This enhances security by preventing accidental exposure through logging/debug output and enabling automatic memory zeroing.
9+
10+
## Refactor Plan
11+
12+
See detailed refactor plan: [docs/refactors/plans/secret-type-introduction.md](../refactors/plans/secret-type-introduction.md)
13+
14+
The plan includes:
15+
16+
- 10 proposals across 4 phases
17+
- Comprehensive inventory of 16 secret fields across all DDD layers
18+
- Progress tracking with detailed implementation checklists
19+
- Timeline and testing strategy
20+
21+
## Goals
22+
23+
- [ ] Replace 16 string-based secret fields with `Secret<String>` type
24+
- [ ] Prevent accidental secret exposure in logs and debug output
25+
- [ ] Enable secure memory zeroing for sensitive data
26+
- [ ] Update documentation with secret handling guidelines
27+
28+
## Acceptance Criteria
29+
30+
> **Note for Contributors**: These criteria define what the PR reviewer will check. Use this as your pre-review checklist before submitting the PR to minimize back-and-forth iterations.
31+
32+
**Quality Checks**:
33+
34+
- [ ] Pre-commit checks pass: `./scripts/pre-commit.sh`
35+
36+
**Task-Specific Criteria**:
37+
38+
- [ ] All 16 secret fields converted to `Secret<String>` (tracked in refactor plan)
39+
- [ ] No secrets appear in debug/display output
40+
- [ ] All unit tests pass with updated secret types
41+
- [ ] All E2E tests pass with secret handling
42+
- [ ] AGENTS.md updated with secret handling rule
43+
- [ ] Documentation includes examples of proper secret usage
