What the reviewer found
nix-secrets command for the author's own agenix-encrypted NixOS secrets: sudo is used only over SSH to the author's own hosts to check/restart the agenix service, decrypting with the user's own SSH key is agenix's normal local-only operation (nothing is transmitted), and rm -rf targets only the regenerated /run/agenix.d runtime mount. Uses sudo on remote hosts, which the installer should know, but nothing leaves the machine or is malicious.

How this review was made
Sonnet 5 read the files above on 7 September 2026 and answered three questions: is it dangerous to whoever installs it, is each scanner finding real, and what should the installer know. The verdict is bound to the file's hash; when the file changes, it is scanned afresh and reviewed again. A script that changes while the definition does not is not re-reviewed — that is a known gap. How the scan and the review work.
