Cursor
Redact secrets from your Cursor agents and prevent them from leaking into logs.
Prerequisite
Install the Cursor CLI. The Cursor desktop app does not necessarily install the separate
agent command.
$ curl https://cursor.com/install -fsS | bash
$ agent --version
1. Install
Get the Dotenvx CLI.
$ curl -sfS https://dotenvx.sh | sh
2. Add your secrets
Add a secret to your
.env file.
$ echo "HELLO=World" > .env
3. Run Cursor with redaction
Run Cursor with your real secrets while redacting them from its output.
$ dotenvx run --redact -- agent -p --force 'Run `dotenvx get HELLO` and echo back just Hello VALUE' --output-format text
Hello [REDACTED]
