#### command line tool that can be used to store and retrieve passwords.

Each password is stored in an item. Items are uniquely identified by a set
of attribute keys and values. When storing a password you must specify
unique pairs of attributes names and values, and when looking up a password
you provide the same attribute name and value pairs.

See <https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jammy/en/man1/secret-tool.1.html>
for more information.
