The openssl pkcs12 round-trip step was speculative defense against
"modern macOS Keychain exports incompatible with security import" —
a problem we made up. What was actually happening:
1. The original failure ("SecKeychainItemImport: Unknown format")
was caused by a TRUNCATED base64 secret value. security wasn't
rejecting the format; it was rejecting bytes it couldn't parse
because the file was 29 bytes short.
2. The follow-on failure ("RC2-40-CBC unsupported") was the openssl
conversion step bombing because openssl 3.x has RC2-40-CBC
disabled by default. macOS Keychain Access actually exports
PKCS12 with RC2-40-CBC + PBE-SHA1 — exactly what `security
import` reads natively.
With the truncated-secret fixed (re-pasted via Gitea API), the .p12
on disk is now correct. Import it directly without round-tripping
through openssl. Less code, fewer failure modes, faster.
