## Security Best Practices

1. **Never commit .env files** - Add to `.gitignore`
2. **Use environment-specific files** - `.env.local`, `.env.production`
3. **Rotate keys regularly** - Especially after sharing code
4. **Use secrets managers** - For production deployments
5. **Limit key permissions** - Use least-privilege principle

## Testing Configuration

Verify your setup:

```bash
langgraph dev
```

Check the logs for successful provider initialization.
