Stashbase
What Stashbase is
Stashbase manages application secrets across projects and environments, with controls for how developers, services, and coding agents use credentials and other resources. Coding agents can run in native or Docker sandboxes with governed access to credentials, network, files, and MCP tools. Its Agent Proxy keeps raw secret values outside the agent process. Policies can cover credentials, API requests, MCP tools, files, commands, and dependencies, while repository and secret scanning workflows help identify exposed or hard-coded secrets. Developers can use a dashboard, CLI, SDKs, REST API, Agent Proxy, or MCP server. Documentation describes integrations for AWS Secrets Manager, Google Cloud Secret Manager, and Vercel. Stashbase also supports secret rotation, CI/CD injection, and audit logs. Its security page describes AES-256 multi-layer encryption, workspace isolation, and encryption of traffic in transit. A local quickstart can run a file policy without an account, API key, or secrets; its desktop quickstart is for macOS or Linux. Stashbase has a free plan, with paid pricing listed from $25/user/mo.
