When a vault cannot be opened through its current unlocker, the error now
ends by naming the vault, saying that it still opens with its mnemonic,
and that 'secret unlocker add passphrase' run with SB_SECRET_MNEMONIC set
gives it a new unlocker, after 'secret vault select' when it is not the
current vault. Only when the vault metadata records the key the mnemonic
derives, and not when the passphrase could not be read. 'secret encrypt'
and 'secret decrypt' read the key secret through vault.GetSecret, and
Secret.GetValue with its helpers is removed. An unreadable 'current'
file's error names 'secret version list' and 'secret version promote'.
Causes stay wrapped.
Model: opus-5-5
init and vault create put the mnemonic into the process environment for
vault.CreateVault to read back, so every program they ran, gpg included,
inherited it, and SB_SECRET_MNEMONIC and SB_UNLOCK_PASSPHRASE were read
at 13 places and never unset. Each command that may need them now reads
both once, in its RunE, into locked buffers on the CLI Instance, and
unsets them at once. The buffers are passed down: vault.CreateVault
takes the mnemonic, a Vault carries Mnemonic and UnlockPassphrase, and
the PGP, keychain and Secure Enclave unlocker constructors take both;
CreatePGPUnlocker sets them on the vault it loads through SetMnemonic
and SetUnlockPassphrase, new in VaultInterface. README warns against
both variables.
Model: opus-5-5
CreatePGPUnlocker got the vault's long-term key from the keychain
unlocker's helper, which on every platform but macOS is a stub that
always fails. It now calls the vault's GetOrDeriveLongTermKey, as adding
a passphrase unlocker does: from the mnemonic, checked against the
vault, or else from the current unlocker. That method joins
VaultInterface. The test GPG key gains an encryption subkey, and a new
test adds a PGP unlocker with the long-term key from the mnemonic and
from a passphrase unlocker, then reads a secret through it.
Model: opus-5-5
Bumps golangci-lint from v2.1.6 (digest-only pin in the `Dockerfile` lint stage) to v2.12.2, pinned by tag and digest (Debian-based image).
Replaces `.golangci.yml` with the canonical strict config: all linters enabled except the standard disable list (`exhaustruct`, `depguard`, `godot`, `wsl`, `wrapcheck`, `varnamelen`), `lll` at 88, `funlen` 80/50, `cyclop` 15, `dupl` 100, and test files are now linted (the old config had `tests: false`, an enable-only list of ~20 linters, `lll` 120, and a blanket exclusion of `internal/macse`).
The stricter config surfaced ~1550 findings, all fixed:
- `wsl_v5` (439) / `nlreturn` (24): blank-line insertions
- `lll` (309): line wrapping at 88 columns; long literals split with `+` concatenation, values unchanged
- `noinlineerr` (130): `if err := ...` split into assignment plus check
- `paralleltest` (116): `t.Parallel()` added to tests without shared state; reasoned `//nolint` where `t.Setenv` or shared fixtures forbid it
- `err113` (97): package-level sentinel errors (new `internal/vault/errors.go`), `%w` wrapping, `errors.Is`
- `perfsprint` (74) / `modernize` (39) / `intrange`: `strconv`, `errors.New`, `slices.Contains`, `any`, `SplitSeq`
- `goconst` (40) / `dupword` (41) / `testifylint` (42) / `thelper` (33): constants, assertion fixes, `t.Helper()`
- `noctx` (22): `exec.CommandContext` for gpg/CLI invocations
- `testpackage` (18): black-box tests moved to `_test` packages where they use only exported identifiers; white-box files carry a reasoned `//nolint`
- `funlen`/`cyclop`/`gocognit`/`nestif`/`dupl`: behavior-preserving helper extraction
- assorted singletons: `gosec`, `gosmopolitan`, `funcorder`, `nonamedreturns`, `makezero`, `prealloc`, `godox`, `nolintlint`, `ireturn`, `nilnil`, `gochecknoinits`
## User-visible strings
**None changed.** Every error message this branch composes is byte-identical to the one `main` composes.
The `err113` sentinels are shaped so `fmt.Errorf` reassembles the original text around them: the sentinel carries the fixed words and the caller supplies the interpolated value in the position it has always occupied. Where the value sits mid-sentence the sentinel holds only a fragment (e.g. `vault.ErrVaultNotFound` is `"does not exist"`, composed by its caller as `vault <name> does not exist`); each such sentinel documents the message it participates in.
Verified mechanically, not by inspection: every `fmt.Errorf` and `errors.New` call site in both trees is parsed, the `Error()` text of any sentinel passed to `%w` is substituted in, and the resulting sets of composed message templates are compared. All 350 templates `main` produces are still produced, character for character. The set of lost or altered messages is empty.
## `unlocker list`
`findUnlockerIDByMetadata` returns `(string, error)` rather than signalling failure with an empty ID, so an unreadable `unlockers.d` is no longer indistinguishable from "no matching entry". `UnlockersList` skips such an entry with a warning naming the directory — its behavior before the scan was extracted into a helper — instead of emitting a row under a synthesized fallback ID that no `unlocker remove` or `unlocker select` can match and that suppresses the current-unlocker marker. The duplicate-check and shell-completion callers skip on the same condition, matching their pre-extraction behavior. Covered by `internal/cli/unlockers_list_test.go`.
`TODO.md` records the change plus follow-ups (version-completion TODOs formerly in code comments, darwin-gated files exceeding 88 columns that Linux CI does not lint).
`make check` is green and the pinned v2.12.2 image reports `0 issues.` Note the test suite needs the memlock ulimit from `script/cibuild` for the 10MB memguard test; that requirement is pre-existing.
Not changed: `script/bootstrap` installs golangci-lint via the system package manager (no version pin to bump), and `script/lint` invokes whatever `golangci-lint` is on PATH. golangci-lint v2.12 deprecates `gomodguard` in favor of `gomodguard_v2` (warning only); the canonical config owns that decision.

- Changed DecryptWithIdentity to return *memguard.LockedBuffer instead of []byte
- Updated all callers throughout the codebase to handle LockedBuffer
- This ensures decrypted data is protected in memory immediately after decryption
- Fixed all usages in vault, secret, version, and unlocker implementations
- Removed duplicate buffer creation and unnecessary memory clearing
- Changed Secret.GetValue and Version.GetValue to return *memguard.LockedBuffer
- Updated all internal callers to handle LockedBuffer properly
- For backward compatibility, vault.GetSecret still returns []byte but makes a copy

- Tests in passphrase_test.go
- Removed intermediate dataBuffer creation since data is now already protected
- This ensures sensitive data is protected in memory throughout encryption
- Removed unused deprecated Save(value []byte, force bool) function
- This function accepted unprotected secret data which was a security issue
- All code now uses vault.AddSecret directly with LockedBuffer
- Updated TODO.md to reflect completion of this security fix
