 # Genesis Tools
+
+🔐 Security
+
+Genesis-tools operates on live infrastructure, so take care with credentials. Any API keys, tokens, or passwords should be stored in .env files or config JSONs excluded from the repo via .gitignore.

+🤘 Credits
+
+Built and maintained by Doc, sysadmin and co-leader of Genesis Radio. With occasional curses, midnight commits, and the ghost of Danny Kirwan watching over it all.
