internal/cli/unlockers.go lines 50 and 442: errUnsupportedUnlockerType is kept on the ground that it covers an unlocker type named on the command line. That failure already has errInvalidUnlockerType (line 39, returned at line 242 by secret unlocker add). errUnsupportedUnlockerType is returned only by the default branch of UnlockersAdd, and the command checks the type before it calls UnlockersAdd.

Acceptable: the default branch returns errInvalidUnlockerType, and errUnsupportedUnlockerType is removed.

Acceptable: one error value for this failure, returned by all three commands.

Acceptable: generateRandomString returns errLengthTooSmall, and errLengthNotPositive is removed.

Off macOS, secret unlocker add keychain or secure-enclave returns the internal/cli copy, while using or removing an existing keychain or secure enclave unlocker returns the secret package's error. Acceptable: one error value for each failure, for example the internal/cli copies removed and the secret package's error returned by unlocker add.

internal/cli drops its copies of vault.ErrSecretNotFound, ErrVaultNotFound,
ErrVersionNotFound and ErrSecretExists and of the secret package's keychain
and Secure Enclave errors, and its second error for an unknown unlocker
type, an invalid mnemonic, a length below 1, an unsupported secret type and
an oversized secret. vault.ErrNilValueBuffer becomes
secret.ErrNilValueBuffer. Every error of secret.ReadPassphrase wraps
ErrPassphraseNotRead. ResolveGPGKeyFingerprint returns ErrGPGKeyNotFound for
a key the keyring lacks. storeInKeychain returns errNilDataBuffer. bip85's
ErrPasswordTooShort and ErrEncodedTooShort go with their unreachable checks,
as does the macOS check in macOS-only code. Tests that matched these
errors' text use errors.Is.
Model: opus-5-5
errInvalidMnemonic is removed; vault import returns errInvalidMnemonicPhrase, as init and vault create do.
errLengthNotPositive is removed; generateRandomString returns errLengthTooSmall.
errKeychainMacOSOnly and errSecureEnclaveMacOSOnly are removed with their checks; UnlockersAdd now returns the secret package's own error, so nothing needed exporting. Off macOS the command still rejects keychain and secure-enclave as unknown types first, as before.
The sweep of every error value in internal/cli, and of internal/secret and internal/vault for duplicates across packages, is done. It found and fixed four more:
errSecretFileTooLarge repeated errSecretTooLarge: secret import now wraps errSecretTooLarge.
errMnemonicTypeNotSupported repeated errUnsupportedSecretType: --type mnemonic returns errUnsupportedSecretType, keeping its hint.
vault.ErrNilValueBuffer repeated the secret package's errNilValueBuffer: it is now secret.ErrNilValueBuffer, returned by both.
errNotMacOS in the macOS-only secret code repeated the keychain error behind a check that could never fail there: removed.
Judgement call: an empty input (errMnemonicEmpty, errGPGKeyIDEmpty, errKeychainItemNameEmpty) is kept as a failure apart from an invalid one; stdin and stderr not being a terminal when reading a passphrase, and stdin not being a terminal when confirming a removal, are kept as three failures.
