Questions for Clawd.

Does the app read my Claude conversations?

No. Never. It reads the .jsonl files Claude Code writes locally: only token counts and model names. Content never touched, never stored, never sent anywhere.

What happens when I connect to claude.ai?

An in-app private browser (sandboxed WKWebView) opens. Clawd reads two numbers : amount spent + monthly limit. That's all. Session cookies stay inside the sandbox; Swift never sees them.

Does any data leave my Mac?

Nothing. No server, no telemetry, no analytics. The only network call is the one-time claude.ai sync, and even that is optional. Daily tracking is 100% local.

What's stored on my Mac?

Only in UserDefaults : amount spent, monthly limit, calibration. And in ~/.claude-pulse/daily-log.json: Claude Code cost per day. No auth tokens, no keys, no conversation data.
