https://github.com/trufflesecurity/trufflehog is a similar tool but checks for far more secrets, so I think it'd be a better choice.

1 in 10 developers leaked an API-key in 2022
Frankly, I think it will take years to replace API-keys (if it will ever happen). Developers are much better-off using CLI tools that prevent leaking secrets by blocking commits to git (e.g., https://github.com/Infisical/infisical or https://github.com/trufflesecurity/trufflehog)

TruffleHog v3 – Detect and automatically verify over 600 credential types
There are a lot of secret detection tools out there. It probably is going to depend a lot on the specific features you care about. I personally really like shhgit[0] which is MIT licensed and is the tool I've found to most match my workflows.

My MetaMask Private Keys Stolen from GitHub Private Repo in 1 Hour
Assuming that the person you were working with didn't drain your wallet, there are many tools which can be used to actively monitor for commits being done on GitHub with secrets of sort.
The first one that comes to my mind is shhgit (https://github.com/eth0izzle/shhgit)
Anyone can self host it and then add multiple GitHub Dev keys to it. Then this can be used to monitor GitHub commits being done, majority of which can be categorized as "secrets".
