Ideogram Security Basics

Overview

Security best practices for Ideogram API keys, tokens, and access control.

Prerequisites

  • Ideogram SDK installed
  • Understanding of environment variables
  • Access to Ideogram dashboard

Instructions

Step 1: Configure Environment Variables

# .env (NEVER commit to git)
IDEOGRAM_API_KEY=sk_live_***
IDEOGRAM_SECRET=***

# .gitignore
.env
.env.local
.env.*.local

Step 2: Implement Secret Rotation

# 1. Generate new key in Ideogram dashboard
# 2. Update environment variable
export IDEOGRAM_API_KEY="new_key_here"

# 3. Verify new key works
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ${IDEOGRAM_API_KEY}" \
  https://api.ideogram.com/health

# 4. Revoke old key in dashboard

Step 3: Apply Least Privilege

EnvironmentRecommended Scopes

Stagingread:*, write:limited

Output

  • Secure API key storage
  • Environment-specific access controls
  • Audit logging enabled

Examples

Service Account Pattern

const clients = {
  reader: new IdeogramClient({
    apiKey: process.env.IDEOGRAM_READ_KEY,
  }),
  writer: new IdeogramClient({
    apiKey: process.env.IDEOGRAM_WRITE_KEY,
  }),
};

Webhook Signature Verification

import crypto from 'crypto';

function verifyWebhookSignature(
  payload: string, signature: string, secret: string
): boolean {
  const expected = crypto.createHmac('sha256', secret).update(payload).digest('hex');
  return crypto.timingSafeEqual(Buffer.from(signature), Buffer.from(expected));
}

Security Checklist

  • API keys in environment variables
  • .env files in .gitignore
  • Different keys for dev/staging/prod
  • Minimal scopes per environment
  • Webhook signatures validated
  • Audit logging enabled

Audit Logging

interface AuditEntry {
  timestamp: Date;
  action: string;
  userId: string;
  resource: string;
  result: 'success' | 'failure';
  metadata?: Record<string, any>;
}

async function auditLog(entry: Omit<AuditEntry, 'timestamp'>): Promise<void> {
  const log: AuditEntry = { ...entry, timestamp: new Date() };

  // Log to Ideogram analytics
  await ideogramClient.track('audit', log);

  // Also log locally for compliance
  console.log('[AUDIT]', JSON.stringify(log));
}

// Usage
await auditLog({
  action: 'ideogram.api.call',
  userId: currentUser.id,
  resource: '/v1/resource',
  result: 'success',
});

evaluating-machine-learning-models: This skill allows Claude to evaluate machine learning models using a comprehensive suite of metrics. It should be used when the user requests model performance analysis, validation, or testing. Claude can use this skill to assess model accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and other relevant metrics. Trigger this skill when the user mentions "evaluate model", "model performance", "testing metrics", "validation results", or requests a comprehensive "model evaluation".

building-neural-networks: This skill allows Claude to construct and configure neural network architectures using the neural-network-builder plugin. It should be used when the user requests the creation of a new neural network, modification of an existing one, or assistance with defining the layers, parameters, and training process. The skill is triggered by requests involving terms like "build a neural network," "define network architecture," "configure layers," or specific mentions of neural network types (e.g., "CNN," "RNN," "transformer").
