Very cool, kudos for adding this one @HarshCasper ! 🚀 I just checked out the branch and ran the sample - works like a charm. Nice to see that it also uses the Vault Lambda Extension layer, which nicely gets pulled into LocalStack. 👌


My only concern here is - hashicorp/vault is published under a BSL license, so we should first do another legal review before publishing this extension to our customers (ideally we'll get in touch with folks at HashiCorp to get them on board with this). Happy to discuss this offline. 👍
