e on the status pane (0) opens your config file, as in lazygit's status panel. The status footer shows it as e edit config. There's no global key. It opens the config the same way e opens a local file:

inside nvim, in that nvim (lazysecrets quits);
otherwise in $VISUAL or $EDITOR, coming back after;
otherwise in the system's default app.

It opens the first config file: your own, also when --config layers several. A config that doesn't exist yet is created with a comment linking to its docs. Closing the editor says "restart lazysecrets to use it", since the config is read at startup.

Docs: keys.md (status pane) and config.md. Tested: the default app with a new config, nvim with an existing one left unchanged, the restart message, and the footer.

E opens your config like e opens a file: in the nvim lazysecrets runs
in, else in $VISUAL or $EDITOR, else in the system's default app. A
missing config is made first, with a link to its docs. Closing the
editor says to restart lazysecrets to use the changes.

Instead of a global E: e on the status pane opens the config, shown
in its footer as "e edit config".
