Secretive
Store SSH keys in the Secure Enclave
The application secures SSH private keys by storing them inside the macOS Secure Enclave, making the keys non‑exportable by design. It integrates with the system Keychain API, allowing keys to be accessed only by the app that created them, and supports additional hardware such as Smart Cards for machines without a Secure Enclave.
Access to stored keys can be gated by biometric or device authentication methods like Touch ID or Apple Watch, and the app emits notifications each time a key is used, providing user awareness of activity. Builds are generated through GitHub Actions with attestation, enabling an auditable release process.
The software is distributed as a stable macOS‑only binary, available via direct download or Homebrew, and includes documentation on installation, security policy, and localization. It is intended for users who need stronger protection and controlled access for their SSH credentials on macOS.
