Nice.Any suggestions for how I can make dotenvx better? I'm striving to make it as good or better than the 1password cli.

yes. also check out my newest project - github.com/vestauth/ves.... It's architecture shifts rotation to the agent/client. Very cool!

Creator of dotenv and dotenvx here 🖐️. I get that software evolves and you have to keep moving forward. But a thought: it'd be great if npmx also offered a way to point people to dotenvx as a more secure next step. I think that'd offer a better balance than a one-way global deprecation notice.

> Then I just deny usage of reading the envs for dotenvx get, dotenvx decrypt We have enterprise builds that disable these commands at request. It's been useful for large companies trying to limit falllout.

The credentials don't need to be no, but the login state (cookie representation) yes. But open to talking about ways to do this local only. Trying to balance convenience and usefulness.

Felt the same pain! I put together the following. If this is interesting, let's chat. dotenvx.com/blog/2025/12...

NPM’s new short-lived tokens strengthen security, but they make rotation painful.

It adds up
It’s tough carving out an hour here, 30 minutes there, to pursue a dream. But it adds up.
