/postman:createenv: generate an environment

Creates a Postman environment with variables inferred from your code, including the {{base_url}} and {{token}} variables that synced requests reference.

Usage

/postman:createenv [env_name]

If env_name is omitted, a name is generated from your framework, like fastapi env.

What it generates

• {{base_url}} and {{token}}: the variables every synced request depends on.
• Inferred variables: base URLs, auth tokens, API keys, and other config-driven values Claude finds by reading your project's configuration and the requests that reference them. Always from code, never guessed from a running server.

Secret handling

Any variable whose name matches key, token, secret, or password gets stored with Postman's "secret" type (masked in the UI) and flagged for manual fill. The tool never invents a secret value.

Example

/postman:createenv

ENV PREVIEW: "fastapi env"

  base_url = http://localhost:8000
  token = <blank>  (secret, masked, fill manually)

Create this environment in Postman? [y / n]

See secret handling for the full policy. Once the write result is shown, the command ends; no further analysis or follow-on commentary.
