  description: Official 1Password MCP server (beta). Runs locally and communicates with the 1Password
    desktop app. Lets MCP clients (Codex, Kiro, and other MCP-compatible clients) manage 1Password Environments
    and act on secrets WITHOUT the agent ever seeing the raw secret values — secrets remain in 1Password
    and are injected at runtime into authorized processes.
capabilities:
- Create Environments
- List Environment variable names
- Handle local .env files within authenticated workflows
- Manage secrets within 1Password Environments
docs_search_server:
  note: 1Password also runs an MCP search server over its developer documentation (see https://www.1password.dev/ai-readable-docs),
    complementing the llms.txt index.
