## プロジェクトの歴史と使われ方

The `aws-vault-binary` cask packages the original 99designs AWS Vault macOS binary distribution. AWS Vault stores long-term AWS IAM credentials in an operating-system secure store and exposes short-lived STS credentials to commands, shells, browser sessions, or local metadata-style endpoints.

### プロジェクトの歴史

The original `99designs/aws-vault` repository was created in August 2015, with GitHub releases beginning at v1.0.0 in September 2015. The upstream README links to a 99designs announcement post and describes the tool as complementary to the AWS CLI, aware of profiles in `~/.aws/config`.

By 2026 the original README marked the project abandoned and pointed users to the active `ByteNess/aws-vault` fork. The cask, however, still references the 99designs repository and v7.2.0 macOS DMG artifact, so this record reflects the legacy binary distribution rather than the newer Homebrew formula.

### 採用の歴史

AWS Vault became one of the canonical AWS credential helpers in the macOS and Unix developer tooling ecosystem. The original README listed installation through direct releases, Homebrew, MacPorts, Chocolatey, Scoop, Arch, Gentoo, FreeBSD, OpenSUSE, Nix, and asdf, which is unusually broad for a single-purpose credential CLI.

The 99designs repository metadata showed thousands of stars and hundreds of forks in June 2026, and the v7.2.0 release assets had large download counts, especially for Linux and Apple Silicon macOS binaries. Homebrew cask analytics still showed active installs for the binary cask even after the original project became legacy.

### 使われ方

The classic workflow is `aws-vault add profile` to store long-term credentials in the platform vault, then `aws-vault exec profile -- command` or `aws-vault login profile` to obtain temporary AWS credentials or console access. The usage guide also documents credential_process use, MFA session caching, SSO caching, and metadata server modes.

Because secrets live in the OS keychain or equivalent backend, `~/.aws/credentials` is not the primary storage location for this package's secrets.

### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性

This cask is historically significant because it preserves the old signed macOS binary channel after the main formula moved on. It also illustrates a common packaging split: the same tool can exist as a source-built formula and as a binary cask, with different upstreams and maintenance status over time.

### タイムライン

- 2015-08: Original 99designs/aws-vault repository created.
- 2015-09: v1.0.0 GitHub release published.
- 2023-03: v7.2.0 published by the 99designs repository.
- 2025-05: ByteNess active fork created.
- 2026-06: Original README marked 99designs/aws-vault abandoned and pointed to ByteNess/aws-vault.

### Related projects

- `ByteNess/aws-vault` is the maintained fork named by the original upstream README.
- `aws-sso-cli` uses similar secure keyring ideas but focuses on IAM Identity Center rather than long-term IAM access keys.
