  • > No source code uploads to our servers.

AI Processing

PROVIDER: USER_DEFINED

Caret acts as an orchestration layer (UI) for existing CLI tools.

  • > Requests are sent directly from your machine to the respective AI provider APIs (e.g., Anthropic, OpenAI) via your local CLI tools.
  • > We do not proxy, intercept, or log these requests.

Mobile Sync

PROTOCOL: WEBSOCKET

The Caret companion app connects to your desktop instance using a direct

local WebSocket connection .

  • > Pairing is secured via a locally generated QR code token.
