19-launch-sync-environment-variables-from-env-example

A deployment check that compares a Contentstack Launch environment’s variable names with a local .env.example file and adds missing names.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit or update a Launch environment from .env.example, with an optional dry run and reporting without printing secrets.
Why use it?
It finds configuration drift before deployment, so the hosted environment is less likely to lack variables expected by the project.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

19-launch-sync-environment-variables-from-env-example scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Sync Launch environment variables from .env.example

Description

Fetch environment variables from a Contentstack Launch project, compare them with a local .env.example file, and patch the target environment to add any missing keys.

When to Use

Use when a Launch environment must match the keys defined in a local .env.example file. Use to audit missing environment variables before a deployment. Use to add missing variable names to a Launch environment without manually editing config.

User Problem

A Launch environment can drift from the variables expected by a frontend project. This skill checks the environment against .env.example and updates Launch when keys are missing.

Success Criteria

All keys present in .env.example exist in the target Launch environment. Missing keys are added through the Launch Projects/Environments API. The script reports what was missing and what was updated. No secrets are printed in logs.

Expected Inputs

  • Launch project UID
  • Launch environment UID
  • Path to local .env.example file
  • Launch API credentials or authenticated context
  • Optional: dry-run flag

Expected Outputs

  • List of keys found in .env.example
  • List of keys already present in Launch
  • List of missing keys that were patched
  • Summary of API calls made
  • Exit code indicating success or failure

Example User Requests

  • Generate a Node.js script that syncs Launch environment variables from .env.example.
  • Compare my Launch environment variables with .env.example and add any missing keys.
  • Write a script to patch missing Launch environment variables for project abc123 and environment dev456.

Workflow Summary

Read and parse the local .env.example file. Fetch the target Launch environment and its current variables. Compare keys from the file against keys in Launch. Build a minimal patch payload containing only missing keys. Call PATCH /projects/{project_uid}/environments/{environment_uid}. Report the changes and stop without exposing values.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
