Score: 5.5/10 (Innovation: 4, Technical: 6, Documentation: 7, Utility: 5)

secs-man is a Rust-based secrets backup manager designed to be tool-independent, ensuring secrets can be recovered using only standard tools like age and coreutils even if the project itself disappears. Its emphasis on decoupling encryption from decryption and manual recovery workflows is interesting for security-conscious users wanting to avoid vendor lock-in for sensitive data.

Target audience: devops, security engineers, system administrators
