Add secret detection scanning steps to existing Harness pipelines using STO security scanners. Detects exposed credentials, API keys, tokens, and sensitive data in code repositories. Supports Harness Code (default, native, unified SAST/SCA/secret detection), Gitleaks (standalone secret scanner, open-source), Semgrep, Snyk, SonarQube, Checkmarx, Fossa, Aqua Trivy, and Wiz. Only works with existing pipelines that have a codebase connector configured. Use when asked to add secret scanning, detect exposed secrets, find leaked API keys, configure secret detection, or scan code for credentials. Trigger phrases: add secret scan, detect secrets, find leaked credentials, configure secret detection, scan for exposed API keys, add Gitleaks, secret scanning pipeline.
