# Exposing Secrets to Subprocesses
The `exec` command allows you to execute another command with environment variables that reference secrets stored in Passbolt.
Any environment variables containing `passbolt://` references are automatically resolved to their corresponding secret values
before the specified command is executed. This ensures that secrets are securely injected into the child process's environment
without exposing them to the parent shell.
For example:
```bash
export GITHUB_TOKEN=passbolt://<PASSBOLT_RESOURCE_ID_HERE>
passbolt exec -- gh auth login
```
This would resolve the passbolt:// reference in GITHUB_TOKEN to its actual secret value and pass it to the gh process.
# Documentation
Usage for all Subcommands is [here](https://github.com/passbolt/go-passbolt-cli/wiki/passbolt).
And is also available via `man passbolt`
