Key Watchdog — a weekly copy of every password
Once a week it copies every key and secret to an external disk and says so. It exists because a copy was once nine days old — and in those nine days four new services had appeared, each living in a single copy.
What it is
Key backups are one of those things that feel done until you check them. The usual problem isn't that a backup is missing, it's that it's outdated: services get set up faster than a person remembers to copy things.
A watchdog backs up all keys and secrets to an external drive once a week and reports it. It was created after an actual measurement, not "just in case": the backup turned out to be nine days old, and in those nine days, keys for four new services had been created—and each of them existed on the machine in a single copy.
Specs: PowerShell and a Windows Task Scheduler job, runs on battery power too—otherwise a week without an outlet would mean a week without a backup. The "check now" button sits on the tool shelf.
