Ask HN: Do you read Secrets from Environment Variables
The Command Line Interface Guidelines [1] says:
> Do not read secrets from environment variables
> Secrets should only be accepted via credential files, pipes, `AF_UNIX` sockets, secret management services, or another IPC mechanism
Which one of these do you use? On github it seems common for projects to use environment variables for secrets.

Command Line Interface Guidelines
Seems they took a small step back from their previous "don't bother with man pages" stance. Now it's "Consider providing man pages."
I still find it a rather shocking order of priority, honestly.

Ask HN: Best way to do scoped commands in a CLI app
- E. `blah project foo --edit`
Wondering if there was any guidance on this from the UNIX people. Perhaps scoping should be done using the file system. `cd path/to/project && blah edit`. Like git does with `git --cwd=path/to/project`. Maybe a virtual FS could even be used. Then you wouldn't have to continuously type in the scope with each command. Interesting thinking about how to maintain state in the terminal...thinking about how Python's virtual env bin/activate modifies the shell.
Found an interesting guide here: https://clig.dev/
