Tip of the week: keep secret scanning on in GitHub
Since October 13, GitHub blocks new Anthropic keys before they are pushed, wherever secret scanning is on. It is free for public repositories.
Since October 13, GitHub repositories with secret scanning enabled block the new Anthropic API key types before they are pushed. Secret scanning runs free on public repositories; organization-owned private repositories need GitHub Secret Protection. If your code uses AI keys, check that secret scanning is on in each repository.
