Security & IdentityJSON

01Agent Notes

op accesses 1Password vaults. `op item get/create/edit/delete` for items. `op read "op://vault/item/field"` for secret references. Always pass `--format=json` for structured output. Use service account tokens (OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN) for CI/CD. `op item list --vault=<vault> --format=json` to list items. `op inject` to template secrets into config files.
