-### Local Development with Infisical CLI
-
-If you already use `infisical run` locally, morphix-env still adds value as the override layer:
-
-```json
-{
-  "dev": "infisical run --path=/ai --env=dev -- morphix-env run -- next dev",

-```
-
-`.env.local` overrides take effect on top of Infisical CLI injection.
-
-## How It Works
-
-1. Read `morphix-env.config.json` for project settings
-2. If `INFISICAL_CLIENT_ID` + `INFISICAL_CLIENT_SECRET` exist → fetch secrets via SDK, inject into `process.env` (does not overwrite existing vars)
-3. Read `.env.local` → inject into `process.env` (overwrites everything, highest priority)
-4. If `generate` is configured → write `__env.js` with public vars
-5. Spawn child command — it inherits the fully assembled `process.env`
