+## Weechat Secured Data
+
+Ref: https://weechat.org/files/doc/stable/weechat_user.en.html#secured_data
+
+One of my goals for this setup is to get my weechat configs into a state where I can host them publicly. That means removing or obscuring all sensetive information from the conf files, at least in plain-text.
+
+
+### Unlock on startup
+
+By default, weechat waits for user input on startup to gather the Secured Data passphrase before doing anything else. [This step can be skipped by setting sec.crypt.passphrase_command](https://weechat.org/files/doc/stable/weechat_user.en.html#secured_data_passphrase_on_startup).
+
+Because we have set up a container secret for this passphrase already, all we really need to do is read its contents...
+
+````
+/set sec.crypt.passphrase_command "/usr/bin/cat /run/secrets/tl-weechat-pass"
