This repository contains template files for configuration. You must create actual configuration files with your real credentials locally.

1. Environment Variables: Copy .env.example to .env and fill in your actual values:

   cp .env.example .env
   # Edit .env with your actual Slack tokens and API keys

2. HolmesGPT Configuration: Copy the template and add your Azure API credentials:

   cp holmesgpt/values.yaml.template holmesgpt/values.yaml
   # Edit holmesgpt/values.yaml with your actual Azure OpenAI credentials

The following files are automatically ignored by git (never committed):

• .env - Contains Slack API tokens and other secrets
• holmesgpt/values.yaml - Contains Azure OpenAI API keys
• *.log - Log files that might contain sensitive information

• .env.example - Template for environment variables
• holmesgpt/values.yaml.template - Template for HolmesGPT configuration

Always ensure you're not accidentally committing sensitive information:

git status  # Check what files are being tracked
git diff    # Review changes before committing

1. Clone this repository
2. Run the security setup:

   cp .env.example .env
   cp holmesgpt/values.yaml.template holmesgpt/values.yaml

3. Edit both files with your actual credentials
4. Follow the main README.md for installation and deployment instructions
