Uses macOS keychain for storage of AWS credentials
历史
aws-keychain is a macOS shell CLI for storing AWS IAM access keys in the macOS Keychain and checking one selected key out into `~/.aws/credentials` or into a command environment. Its README explicitly says it is no longer maintained and recommends aws-vault instead.
The upstream README identifies the project as a 2014-2015 Paul Annesley MIT-licensed tool. It was written for the Mac OS X Keychain era of local AWS access-key management, before newer credential-process, SSO, and vault-style workflows became the dominant recommendation.
GitHub lists v3.0.0 as the latest release dated September 22, 2015 and describes the repository as succeeded by aws-vault. Homebrew analytics showed only 8 installs in 30 days, 10 in 90 days, and 56 in 365 days at the time of this batch, consistent with a historical package kept around for existing users.
The command supports `add`, `ls`, `exec`, and `rm` operations for named IAM access keys in Keychain. The README warns about shell history when adding keys, supports interactive secret entry, and shows `aws-keychain exec personal aws s3 ls` as the intended safe command-running workflow.
aws-keychain is a compact example of the local-secret-storage lineage that led to better-known tools such as aws-vault. It matters less as a current recommendation and more as a package archaeology marker for how macOS AWS users avoided plaintext credentials before first-class AWS SSO workflows.
