Webpages - Bookmark folders organized by Application/System then Environment then functional use. Site specific info/creds in LastPass

Ssh - ssh config named as <system>_<environent>

rest APIs - postman collections by system

Hah, this is literally my exact setup too, right down to using LastPass and Postman.

Although, my work recently took away direct SSH access for all devs in all environments, we now have to SSH to a bastion host, then SSH to servers from there. Makes my ssh config less valuable.

You can use SSH agent forwarding, however that causes some holes to open up as well, so ymmv.

Don't do that. Do this instead (taken from my ~/.ssh/config):

  # Sample bastion host configuration without ForwardAgent
  # Host bastion
  #       User bastion_user
  #       Hostname 10.11.12.13
  #       IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_bastion
  #
  # Host server
  #       User server_user
  #       Hostname 192.168.0.1
  #       IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_server
  #       ProxyCommand ssh -q -W %h:%p bastion
