"""Check Ansible tasks for missing no_log on secret-handling tasks.
ansible-lint's built-in ``no-log-password`` rule only fires when a module
parameter is literally named ``*password*`` and there's a loop. It does
NOT catch:
- Shell/command tasks that interpolate ``{{ _secrets.* }}`` or
``{{ *password* }}`` variables
- Template/copy tasks that render secret values without ``no_log``
This script fills that gap by scanning all Ansible task files for
variables that look like secrets (``_secrets.*``, ``*password*``,
``*secret*``, ``*token*``, ``*api_key*``) and verifying that the task
has ``no_log`` set to a non-False value.
Usage::
python -m devx.tools.check_ansible_no_log
python -m devx.tools.check_ansible_no_log --path ansible/roles/my_role
python -m devx.tools.check_ansible_no_log --ansible-dir ansible/roles
Exit code 0 if all secret-handling tasks have no_log, 1 otherwise.
