Janee is an MCP server that provides secure secrets management for AI agents, enabling API access without exposing raw credentials.
Overview
Janee sits between AI agents and APIs, injecting credentials while maintaining zero-knowledge for agents. It provides full audit trails, request policies, session TTLs, and works with any MCP client. The solution keeps encrypted keys locally and supports various authentication methods including bearer tokens, OAuth, AWS SigV4, and GitHub App auth.
Try asking AI
After installing, here are 5 things you can ask your AI assistant:
When to choose this
Choose Janee when you're working with multiple AI agents that need API access but you want to maintain security through credential isolation and request auditing.
When NOT to choose this
Don't choose Janee if you need write access to services (currently read-only proxy only), or if you prefer a cloud-based secrets management solution rather than a local-first approach.
