Sometimes when you are hacking on a shell script or you have some configuration management pieces you just need a simple way to store and access secrets locally without having to invest in a lot of infrastructure. (Especially if you are working for an employer where you don't even get to have a say in the infra)

At Plyint(https://plyint.com), we actually use it to manage team level secrets through Keybase. To make this easier we wrote an extension encpass-keybase.sh(https://github.com/plyint/encpass.sh/blob/master/extensions/...), which uses Keybase's keys, encryption, and git repos.
