Envcheck CLI catches missing API keys and broken .env files before deployment

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

A developer built envcheck, a zero-dependency Node CLI that validates .env files and scans for leaked secrets. It compares env files against .env.example and supports JSON schema for per-key validation. The tool aims to prevent common deployment failures and accidental secret exposure.

Meridian48 take
A practical, low-friction tool that solves a real pain point — but its value depends on teams actually integrating it into their CI pipelines.
