Which is good, because they help us keep our secrets safe and secure.</p> <p>I&rsquo;ve been using <a href="https://bitwarden.com/products/personal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreffer">Bitwarden Password manager</a> personally for a couple of years now and I&rsquo;ve been loving it. It&rsquo;s <a href="https://github.com/bitwarden" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreffer">open source</a> , has a great community and has many features that I love (even in the free plan).</p> <p>Recently, I&rsquo;ve started to experiment with their <a href="https://bitwarden.com/help/secrets-manager-cli/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreffer">Secrets manager CLI</a> - <code>bws</code> - and one feature that struck me was the <code>bws run</code> command.</p> <h2 id="bws-run"><code>bws run</code></h2> <p>In a nutshell, <a href="https://bitwarden.com/help/secrets-manager-cli/#run" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreffer"><code>bws run</code></a> allows you to run a command with secrests injected as environment variables. That&rsquo;s pretty neat.</p>
