Create a .env file in your Replit project. This file should be in the same directory as your config.js file. In the .env file, define your secret token as an environment variable. For example:

token=your_secret_token_here

Save the .env file. In your config.js file, you can use the dotenv library to load the environment variables from the .env file. Make sure you have dotenv installed in your Replit project.

require('dotenv').config(); // Load environment variables from the .env file

module.exports = {
  TOKEN: process.env.token, // Access the token as an environment variable
  // Other configuration options...
};

Ensure that the require('dotenv').config(); line is at the top of your config.js file. Now, you can access the TOKEN variable in your code as process.env.token, and it will contain the secret token you defined in the .env file.
