The extent of the “conversion” required would pretty much just be taking one form of JSON output and transforming it into a different JSON output, which is pretty easy to do in a few lines of Python or a single jq command. It would likely be more work and hassle to have to install and manage a secrets proxy, rather than just writing a few transformation lines, or better yet just using the SDK of the service you’re using.

Even this secrets manager proxy that the OP is about is explicitly to be used in legacy situations where you can’t use the AWS SDK, which is preferred because it does all of the stuff you mentioned for you.

However, this is Hacker News! If you think you see a problem that can be solved that other people don’t, why don’t you build it?
