#### Extension Secrets
#### Extension environment variables
This feature is only available through the CLI.
Extensions can declare the names of required environment variables in `env_keys`. goose resolves these values when the extension starts, using an environment variable first and then goose secret storage (the system keyring, or `secrets.yaml` when the keyring is disabled).
If a recipe uses an extension that requires a secret, goose can prompt users to provide the secret when running the recipe:
1. When a recipe is loaded, goose scans all extensions (including those in subrecipes) for `env_keys` fields
2. If any required environment variables are missing from the secure keyring, goose prompts the user to enter them
3. Values are stored securely in the system keyring and reused for subsequent runs
To update a stored secret, remove it from the system keyring and run the recipe again to be re-prompted.
Recipe loading does not prompt for missing values. Configure them before starting the recipe; if a required value is unavailable, the extension reports an initialization error.
:::info
This feature is designed to prompt for and securely store secrets (such as API keys), but `env_keys` can include any environment variable needed by the extension (such as API endpoints, configuration values, etc.).
Users can press `ESC` to skip entering a variable if it's optional for the extension.
`env_keys` can include secrets such as API keys as well as non-secret configuration such as API endpoints.
