Security Awareness and Token Redaction

Priority: MEDIUM

Problem: GitHub PAT token exposed in transcript (ghp_BKwj...). While user said "we'll audit security later," AI should still warn and redact sensitive values proactively.

Current Behavior:

Secrets appear in tool outputs No automatic redaction No warnings about sensitive data exposure Expected Behavior:

Auto-detect tokens/secrets in outputs Redact in display: ghp_**** Warn: "I noticed a GitHub token in the output. I've redacted it for security." Flag before committing sensitive files: "Warning: .env contains credentials. Should this be in .gitignore?" Impact:

Security risk if transcripts are shared Easy to accidentally commit secrets Professional AI should protect user by default
