FAQ
Is it a usage tracker / surveillance tool?
Section titled “Is it a usage tracker / surveillance tool?”No. It’s the opposite. It doesn’t measure how much AI you use, and it captures no source code, terminal output, or keystrokes. It reflects your validation practice back to you, locally. A calm mirror, not a manager’s dashboard.
Does it send anything to the cloud?
Section titled “Does it send anything to the cloud?”Never. It makes no network calls — a Prime Directive enforced in CI. No account, no login, no telemetry. Everything is local JSON on your machine.
Does it work with my AI tool?
Section titled “Does it work with my AI tool?”Yes — it’s tool-agnostic. Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, ChatGPT, even a browser tab or copy-paste. It watches your validation actions, not where the code came from.
Why didn’t my Karma Score change?
Section titled “Why didn’t my Karma Score change?”The headline trend is self-comparative and stays a quiet “forming” note until you
have ~5 sessions — it won’t grade a sparse history. Also, work done by an AI agent or
in an external terminal isn’t auto-captured: log it with ✅ Log a Validation or
@agentkarma /verify, then end the session.
Uninstalling deleted my data — is that a bug?
Section titled “Uninstalling deleted my data — is that a bug?”No. Updates preserve your data; an explicit uninstall (or Delete All Local Data) removes it. For a privacy-first tool, your local data leaving with the tool is the point.
Is it free / open-source?
Section titled “Is it free / open-source?”Yes — free on the VS Code Marketplace and open-source under Apache-2.0. An Innovate With Sanjeev project.
