SwapSensitive is a Chrome extension designed to protect sensitive information while using ChatGPT. This tool automatically detects and redacts API keys and database credentials from your code as you paste it into the chat interface. It supports various sensitive credential patterns, including those from AWS, Stripe, and GitHub, ensuring that developers can share code snippets without the risk of exposing critical data. The extension operates locally, providing a zero-trust environment that guarantees your data remains secure without being sent to external servers.

One of the standout features of SwapSensitive is its ability to preserve code syntax. Unlike traditional redactors that may render code unusable, this extension replaces sensitive keys with contextual placeholders while maintaining the integrity of the code. This allows developers to continue using ChatGPT for debugging and assistance without compromising security. With no telemetry or external dependencies, SwapSensitive offers a seamless workflow for developers looking to enhance their coding practices while safeguarding sensitive information.
