Chrome "Enhanced Safe Browsing" warning

You may see this warning during installation. It appears for most indie extensions — it simply means Google hasn't manually reviewed it yet, not that there's any issue. Secret Sanitizer is fully open source, makes zero network requests, and every line of code is auditable on GitHub.

Nice build. Local-first + open source is exactly what security tools should aim for.

Honestly, that is such a smart idea. Lately when I'm building, I feel naked with my API keys. Great job, I love it!

Such a smart idea! Protecting secrets before they ever leave your machine just makes sense.

Really cool project and could definitely save some people. I've gotten close with my .env, I hate to admit!

Secret Sanitizer is a brilliant safeguard. Auto-masking secrets locally before they hit AI chats keeps everything secure without the cloud risk. Love the open-source vibe!

This is genuinely useful. The number of times I've had that split-second panic after pasting something into ChatGPT is way too high. Love that it's fully local and open source. No way I'd trust a closed-source tool that scans my clipboard!
