Summary
llm-keys-ui is a plugin that provides a secure way to manage API keys (credentials needed to access external services) on remote machines without pasting them directly into chat applications. It allows users to set up a web interface where API keys can be saved and then retrieved later using command-line commands, making it safer to use coding agents on multiple machines.
