Even the toaster can't save this one.
Summary
Dotenv Mask Editor is a Visual Studio Code extension that provides a secure visual editor for .env files. It features a table-based interface that automatically masks sensitive values (like API keys and passwords) based on length thresholds to prevent accidental exposure. All processing occurs locally within the editor, and users can edit values by clicking cells, which temporarily reveal raw text while focused before re-masking when focus moves away.
