| 63 | +## 🔑 What is the Key Management System? |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +An automated system for securely managing API keys and secrets using a "find, store, inject, forget" workflow: |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +1. **Find** - Scans code for required environment variables |
| 68 | +2. **Store** - Saves keys in GitHub repository secrets |
| 69 | +3. **Inject** - Places keys in deployment configuration |
| 70 | +4. **Forget** - Clears sensitive values from memory |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +## ✨ Key Features |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +- 🔍 **Automatic Discovery** - Identifies required keys |
| 75 | +- 🔐 **Secure Storage** - GitHub Secrets integration |
| 76 | +- 💉 **Smart Injection** - Multiple file formats |
| 77 | +- 🧹 **Memory Management** - Automatic cleanup |
| 78 | +- 🔄 **Extensible** - Plugin architecture |
| 79 | +- 📊 **Comprehensive Logging** - No sensitive data exposure |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +## 🛡️ Security Highlights |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +- ✅ GitHub Secrets masking enabled |
| 84 | +- ✅ Memory cleared after processing |
| 85 | +- ✅ No key values in logs |
| 86 | +- ✅ Limited access control |
| 87 | +- ✅ Audit trail of operations |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +## 🚀 Quick Usage |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +### Command Line |
| 92 | +```bash |
| 93 | +cd scripts |
