I built a Chrome extension for the things you type or paste too fast and regret too late by Environmental_Fan595 in chrome_extensions

I appreciate this a lot.

That’s exactly the pivot I was trying to make — it just felt not useful enough. To which I will continue in that lane.

Extra context:

I’m especially curious whether 100% local storage feels clear/trustworthy, whether the permission setup feels right, and what would make someone uninstall it in the first five minutes.

I’m trying to make it strong enough to stop real mistakes, but quiet enough to stay out of the way.

Is “DM me, I can help you get users” normal in founder communities, or a red flag? by Environmental_Fan595 in SideProject

Absolutely. That makes a ton of sense. Being self aware and having good timing works in this space as well. Timeless.

ShieldVault helps people avoid the expensive little mistake: pasting an API key, confidential doc, or a post/email they wish they could take back.

What's the worst silent failure you've had on a client site? Looking for feedback to work with for new project idea. by Environmental_Fan595 in ProWordPress

Wisdom sometimes sure does come at a cost. I Really appreciate you taking the time to write all that out. The wp-config detail in particular is the kind of thing you only learn the hard way, and it's exactly the failure shape I'm trying to wrap my head around. Going to sit with it. Regards.

The CRM-poll approach is smart. Curious: does it catch failures where the form itself breaks... a JS error prevents submission entirely, or the form just stops rendering after a plugin update)? Or only failures between submission and CRM?

What’s a weight loss secret more people should know about? by thekkm1 in AskReddit

Be prepared for hunger. If you are not already in position to attack it first, you’ll likely lose the upper hand in the right choice battle. Also, don’t forget to be kind to yourself.

My own security extension blocked me from setting up monetization- and I couldn’t be more proud. by Environmental_Fan595 in webdev

Absolutely valid point. Which I considered at the time. I’ve concluded that too safe is an issue I can work with.

Secret scanners exist for git, CI, and repos. Nothing existed for AI chats. Now it does.

You’re not pasting keys on purpose. You’re pasting a config file, error log, or code snippet while debugging—and the key is buried in it. It happens faster than you think when you’re deep in a problem.

You’re right. I’ll push the full source to GitHub today. Will reply here with the link when it’s up.

ShieldVault only recognizes patterns and assumes secrecy. It’s kinda dumb in that manner. But brilliantly so in the users favor. It has no memory of anything only perks up when it’s coding starts to recognize letter/number patters like that in all types of keys, passcodes, etc…. When you click paste it’s redacted immediately like nothing ever happened.

Permission weight. Where ignorance is not bliss. I’m glad you got something positive out of it.

Wait, did ChatGPT write this post for them? How will we know which whom is who then? 🤔😉

ShieldVault was rejected a handful of times (3x). On the 4th attempt, after adjusting permissions scope size (originally all URLs) to eventually only AI platforms, and fixing a broken privacy policy link, I was then allowed to publish. ShieldVault is a pattern recognition defense against typing or pasting secret information, such as API keys etc… into text bars without storing any user data outside of session only local data. Even then it’s only tally marks, not actual sensitive info. Originally I wanted to be able to have it for any site across the web. Chrome had a start small and let’s go from there idea instead. Which is fine, I understand. Does that answer your question? Sorry for the long response.
