## governance-secrets-hard-prohibition

- **URL:** (org convention — not a plugin research corpus entry)
- **Description:** Hard prohibition on placing secrets, API keys, tokens, or credentials in code, config, prompts, or any output. Grounds the secrets/credentials check in `scripts/validate-secrets.sh` and Step 1 of SKILL.md — AGENTS.md is committed content, so an embedded real secret is a hard-prohibition violation, not a style nit.
- **Research doc:** core/instructions/governance.md (org convention file, not a plugin research corpus entry; content is inlined here since plugins must be self-contained and this file may not exist wherever the plugin is installed)
