Where is the vault located on linux?

I installed the commander via pip, but struggle to find the location of the local vault to verify the access permissions.

It is not clear what is the issue. Commander is expected to be installed into a separate Python virtual environment. pip packages including Commander are installed into the ${YOUR_VIRTUAL_ENVIRONMENT}/lib/pythonX.X/site-packages/ folder.

Commander does not support local storage for your vault. All records and folders are stored in memory.

Commander stores locally only the configuration file config.json. The default file location is $HOME/.keeper folder.

Thanks we thought there would be a local cache of the secret entries saved on disk so we want to make sure correct folder permissions are set. But since it's only stored in memory then I suspect it gets cleaned up after process exits?

Yes, vault data gets cleaned up when Commander exits
