Rotate credentials after a session
Why rotate
During a TuringTap session, decrypted HTTP traffic — including
Authorization headers, cookies, and any tokens in request bodies — is made
available to your AI agent via get_traffic(), in raw form. TuringTap
does not filter or redact it: partial redaction invites false confidence, so
we do not promise it.
TuringTap itself does not store these values. The session buffer lives in proxy RAM and is purged when the session closes. But your AI agent transmits the traffic to your AI provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, etc.), whose logs may retain the conversation. That's outside TuringTap's control.
When to rotate
After any session where credentials you consider sensitive transited the proxy. If you logged into anything, entered a password, or the browser carried a session cookie for an account you care about while the session was open, treat that credential as exposed to your AI provider and rotate it once you're done with the task.
How to rotate
For each service whose credentials transited:
- Log into the service normally.
- Invalidate the credential:
- Passwords — change the password and sign out of all other sessions (usually under Security or Sessions in account settings).
- Session cookies — signing out of all sessions invalidates them; many services offer "log out everywhere".
- API keys / tokens — revoke the key and mint a new one from the provider's API-keys page (GitHub: Settings → Developer settings; Google Cloud: APIs & Services → Credentials; Stripe: Developers → API keys).
- OAuth grants — revoke the grant from the provider's connected-apps page (Google: myaccount.google.com/permissions; GitHub: Settings → Applications).
- If the service supports it, review recent sign-in activity for anything you don't recognize.
Reduce exposure next time
- Scope
get_traffic(host=...)to the narrowest host filter that answers the question, and preferanalyze()(endpoint shapes only) when you don't need raw exchanges. - Use throwaway accounts when reverse-engineering third-party APIs.
- Ask your AI agent not to echo credential values into the chat.
What TuringTap keeps
Nothing. Session traffic exists only in proxy RAM while the session is open and is purged on close. TuringTap persists no telemetry or analytics about your requests.
