- Saved credentials are keyed by profile id. A sync peer (or a crafted
import using 'overwrite') could keep an existing profile's id but point
it at another host, user, GitHub API URL, RD Gateway or jump host, and
the saved password/token went there on the next connect without a
prompt. Such a change now forgets that profile's saved credentials
(audited), so the user is asked again.
- --answer / NEXUS_ANSWERS auto-fill every credential prompt and --answer
is visible in the process list; they're now refused unless --screenshot
is given (they exist for screenshot automation).
- Docs: IRC passwords are only sent over TLS/tunnel/loopback; sync's
retarget behaviour; the --answer restriction.
Profiles can be kept in step across machines through any folder they
share (cloud drive, network share, git checkout): one file,
nexus-profiles.nexus, in the encrypted-export format under a sync
password kept in the keychain/vault. Each sync merges profile by profile
(newest updated_at wins), propagates deletions as dated tombstones (an
edit after a deletion brings the profile back; tombstones expire after
180 days), validates every incoming profile, writes the file only when
it changed, and never syncs credentials.
Settings → Security → Profile sync picks the folder and sets the
password; syncs run at launch, 3 s after a profile change, every 10
minutes and on Sync Now (automatic runs stay quiet unless something
changed). An end-to-end test drives create, edit and delete between two
data directories sharing a folder.
