## 🔑 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+
