A secret linter is a class of static analysis tool that scans a codebase for suspected hardcoded credentials (API keys, tokens, private keys, webhook secrets, etc.), typically reporting errors at the commit or CI stage, using regex patterns (such as the sk_live_ or AKIA prefixes) plus entropy detection to identify high-randomness strings.
