 `envsitter` is designed for LLM/agent workflows where you want to:
 
 - List keys present in an env source (`.env` file or external provider)
-- Check whether a key’s value matches a candidate value you provide at runtime ("outside-in")
+- Compare a key’s value to a candidate value you provide at runtime ("outside-in")
 - Do bulk matching (one candidate against many keys, or candidates-by-key)
 - Produce deterministic fingerprints for comparisons/auditing
+- Ask boolean questions about values (empty/prefix/suffix/regex/type-ish checks) without ever returning the value
 
 Related: https://github.com/boxpositron/envsitter-guard — an OpenCode plugin that blocks agents/tools from reading or editing sensitive `.env*` files (preventing accidental secret leaks), while still allowing safe inspection via EnvSitter-style tools (keys + deterministic fingerprints; never values).
