  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "git-roots",
      "description": "GIT_ROOTS",
      "password": true
    },
    {
      "type": "promptString",

        "GIT_ROOTS": "${input:git-roots}",
        "GIT_WRITABLE": "${input:git-writable}"
      }
    }
  }
}

VS Code prompts for each input the first time the server starts, so no secret is written to the file. VS Code docs
