Privacy & data

Koda has zero telemetry. No usage data, crash reports, or analytics are collected or transmitted anywhere.

What stays local

• Conversations are stored only in your local SQLite database
• API keys are stored locally in the same database (file mode 0600)
• The only network traffic is your LLM API calls to the provider you chose
• Version checks query crates.io only (no Koda-specific server)
• You can audit every byte sent to the model by reading the DB directly

Database location

~/.config/koda/db/koda.db

The database is a standard SQLite file. You can inspect it with any SQLite browser or the sqlite3 CLI.

Deleting your data

# Delete all sessions
rm ~/.config/koda/db/koda.db

# Or selectively from the TUI
/sessions delete <id>

There is no cloud backup. Deleted data is gone.
