Keyholdr is a macOS app for developers juggling API keys and secrets. Press ⌃⌥⌘K anywhere and your vault appears - Touch ID required for every copy. Keys live in the macOS Keychain, the same store Safari and iCloud use. No accounts, no sync, no analytics, no network access. Unlike password managers, Keyholdr is single-purpose: organize by platform and tag, multi-select to copy. Ships with a CLI - keyholdr pick / run - to inject secrets as env vars without aenv file.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Keyholdr because I was tired of digging through Notes, .env files, and random text docs every time I needed an API key while coding. It's a tiny menu bar app: one hotkey summons your vault, Touch ID unlocks each copy, and everything stays in the macOS Keychain — no cloud, no accounts, no analytics.
It also ships a CLI so you can pull secrets straight into your terminal or scripts without hardcoding them.
Would love your feedback — especially on what would make this genuinely useful in your daily workflow. Thanks for checking it out!
big fan of no-network single-purpose vaults, this looks solid. one thing i'd love is a quick way to set per-key expiration or a ttl, so old tokens stop working automatically instead of lingering in my vault forever. also rotation reminders would be clutch for the api keys i forget about until something breaks
