+## Storage vs deployment lookup credentials
+
+Storage credentials (`AWS_*` for S3, `GCP_*` for GCP Storage, …) are **project-wide and unprefixed**. Optional cloud-API credentials used only for **dynamic VM IP lookup** on EC2 / Azure VM / GCP VM use a distinct `{METHOD}_LOOKUP_…` namespace so they never collide with storage — even on a single-environment project.
+
+| Concern | Examples |
+|---------|----------|
+| Storage | `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `GCP_PROJECT_ID`, `GCP_KEY_FILE` |
+| EC2 instance-IP lookup | `EC2_LOOKUP_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `EC2_LOOKUP_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `EC2_LOOKUP_AWS_REGION` |
