Rotate a secret ​

Replace a credential on a running installation, no image build or release: put the new value, then restart the bot.

You need:

  • The deployment profile in reach: the operator directory, or SWITCHBOARD_DEPLOY_PROFILE=github://…/profile.json@main plus CONFIG_REPO_TOKEN for a private repository.
  • CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN for the profile's account; a mis-scoped one fails the put with Authentication error [code: 10000].
  • The new value where the profile's secretsSource reads it: a <NAME> file in the secrets directory (~/.secrets/switchboard by default) or a field of the profile's 1Password item.
  • For the restart, an ingress bearer whose subject holds deploy:write, in SWITCHBOARD_DEPLOY_TOKEN.

Find every Worker that holds it ​

deploy/secrets.manifest.json lists each Worker's secrets. A shared bearer (MEMORY_TOKEN, SANDBOX_TOKEN, RESIDENT_*_TOKEN) must be the same value on every Worker listed for it; rotate it everywhere.

Put the new value ​

bash
npx @coreplane/switchboard deploy secrets <memory|bot|resident|sandbox> --only <NAME>

The command refuses before any upload when a required name is absent from the source, then passes each value to wrangler secret put on stdin; nothing is printed. It renders the Worker's wrangler.jsonc itself, so no deploy init first.

Restart the bot ​

bash
SWITCHBOARD_DEPLOY_TOKEN=<token> npx @coreplane/switchboard deploy restart

A put does not restart the container; it keeps the environment it started with. deploy restart drains it and starts the next request on the new environment; runs in flight hand off to the next container. It is done once /healthz reports a later startedAt, about 30 seconds.

Rotating SWITCHBOARD_INGRESS_TOKENS works the same way, the deployer's own entry included: deploy restart with the new token works right after the put, because the Worker authenticates it from its already-updated environment. Keep the subjects unchanged; grants entries key on them.

Update CI where it holds a copy ​

RESIDENT_READ_TOKEN and SANDBOX_TOKEN are also held by the CI that deploys releases (Deploy). Set the new value there too.
