In general, the fix is to avoid persisting the API key in clear text in the generated config.py. Instead, the config should reference the key from a safer source (for example, environment variables), or the portion of the template dealing with credentials should be removed and the runtime should read them from the environment. For the hard-coded API_KEY = "sk-1234" example, we should also stop embedding a literal key in the script and instead demonstrate reading from an environment variable.

The best fix here, without changing the overall behavior of the benchmark runner, is:

  • Stop passing api_key into generate_api_config and stop inserting it into API_CONFIG_TEMPLATE.
  • Modify the template so that, instead of having a concrete key value formatted in, it reads the API key from os.environ["API_KEY"] at runtime (or similar).
  • Update run_benchmark_api so that it no longer passes the key into generate_api_config; instead, it sets the environment variable (for the Docker process or worker) if needed.
  • In the __main__ example, remove the hard-coded API_KEY = "sk-1234" and show how to set it via environment (os.environ.setdefault("API_KEY", "...") or just read it, failing if not set).

Because we must not assume other files’ behavior, we will: (1) remove use of api_key from the config template and function call, ensuring the key is no longer written to disk; and (2) keep the function signatures intact where possible to avoid breaking callers, but mark api_key as unused in the template. We’ll also replace the hard-coded API_KEY = "sk-1234" default with reading from an environment variable, so secrets are not stored in source code.

Concretely in test/finetune/test_benchmark_api.py:

  • Update API_CONFIG_TEMPLATE so that it does not contain any {api_key} placeholder or other key contents; instead, it will read API_KEY from the environment inside the generated config code (e.g., os.environ.get("API_KEY")). This ensures the key is available at runtime but never written into the file content.
  • Keep generate_api_config’s api_key parameter but stop using it in the .format() call; this preserves the call signature for any other uses while eliminating the clear-text storage.
  • In run_benchmark_api, keep receiving api_key and use os.environ.setdefault("API_KEY", api_key) (or just os.environ["API_KEY"] = api_key) before invoking downstream processes, rather than passing it into generate_api_config for file interpolation.
  • In the __main__ section, remove the literal API_KEY = "sk-1234" and instead read from os.environ.get("API_KEY"), optionally falling back to None or raising an error, so secrets are not embedded in the file.

These edits are all within the shown file and ensure that the API key is no longer written to disk in clear text, addressing all alert variants.
