Resumable Context — API Key Rotation Session

Where Things Stand

The OpenAI and Google API keys have been fully rotated — new keys generated, old keys revoked, vault file updated in both locations (~/Documents/Claude/Projects/rootphi-core/api-keys.json and ~/Documents/Claude/triangulator/api-keys.json), and the triangulator skill repackaged as llm-triangulator.skill in the rootphi-core folder.

Brian still needs to install the repackaged skill by double-clicking ~/Documents/Claude/Projects/rootphi-core/llm-triangulator.skill. Until then, the installed (read-only) copy in .claude/skills/llm-triangulator/ still has the old keys — though those old keys are now revoked and won't work anyway.

The remaining 5 provider keys (Anthropic, xAI, DeepSeek, Mistral, Together AI) were not flagged as exposed and were left unchanged.

CLAUDE.md Was Rewritten

The old CLAUDE.md had a stale triangulator override pointing to /sessions/gallant-vibrant-fermi/... (a dead session path) and minimal context-manager instructions. It was replaced with:

  • Session Lifecycle section: invoke context-manager at start/end, workspace-health after skill changes
  • Correct triangulator file paths (self-contained inside installed skill)
  • Source-of-truth locations on Brian's Mac
  • API key security workflow (clipboard-read, never paste in chat)

Workspace Health

Ran a check after repackaging — 15 passed, 1 false positive (scripts-exist flagged a relative path in CLAUDE.md documentation as a missing script). All JSON configs valid, no empty keys, no cross-reference issues, context folder intact.

Key Workflow for Future Key Rotations

  1. Brian copies new key to clipboard
  2. Claude reads via read_clipboard (requires requesting clipboard access)
  3. Claude updates /tmp/ copy of the skill's api-keys.json
  4. Claude repackages using python -m scripts.package_skill from the skill-creator directory
  5. Brian installs the .skill file
  6. Brian also runs cp ~/Documents/Claude/Projects/rootphi-core/api-keys.json ~/Documents/Claude/triangulator/api-keys.json to sync the source-of-truth copy
