GenAIKeys

Convenient, extensible API key management for Generative AI applications using cloud secret vaults. One Python API across Azure Key Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, and Google Secret Manager.

Why GenAIKeys?

• One API, multiple vaults — swap providers without touching app code.
• Keyless by default — Managed Identity, IAM roles, ADC.
• TTL cache built in — fewer vault calls, lower bills.
• Extensible — bring your own backend in a few lines.
• Convenience helpers for OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini.

Install

pip install genaikeys              # Azure (default)
pip install "genaikeys[aws]"
pip install "genaikeys[gcp]"
pip install "genaikeys[all]"

Quick start

from genaikeys import GenAIKeys

sk = GenAIKeys.azure()                  # or .aws() / .gcp()

api_key       = sk.get("huggingface-api-key")
openai_key    = sk.get_openai_key()     # → "OPENAI-API-KEY"
anthropic_key = sk.get_anthropic_key()  # → "ANTHROPIC-API-KEY"
gemini_key    = sk.get_gemini_key()     # → "GEMINI-API-KEY"

Factory methods read defaults from the environment:

Backend	Env var(s)
GenAIKeys.azure()	AZURE_KEY_VAULT_URL
GenAIKeys.aws()	AWS_DEFAULT_REGION, optional AWS_PROFILE
GenAIKeys.gcp()	GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT

Azure tip: Key Vault disallows underscores in secret names. GenAIKeys auto-converts _ → -, so sk.get("OPENAI_API_KEY") looks up OPENAI-API-KEY.

Documentation

Full docs are published at https://ndamulelonemakh.github.io/genaikeys/:

• Configuration & authentication — Azure, AWS, GCP setup, credential chains, IAM/RBAC requirements.
• Custom backends — implement your own secret store.
• Logging — enable, disable, route to a custom handler.

Caching

sk = GenAIKeys.azure(cache_duration=300)   # 5-minute TTL
sk.clear("OPENAI_API_KEY")                 # invalidate one key
sk.clear()                                 # invalidate everything

Custom backends

from genaikeys import GenAIKeys
from genaikeys.plugins import SecretManagerPlugin

class MyPlugin(SecretManagerPlugin):
    def get_secret(self, secret_name: str) -> str:
        return "my-secret-value"

sk = GenAIKeys(MyPlugin())

See Custom backends for the full interface and entry-point registration.
