Security & Trust Policy

🔒 Local-First, Zero Telemetry

cinch is strictly a local developer tool designed to translate and attach skills and agent configurations between AI developer harnesses on your local filesystem.

  • Zero Network Activity: Cinch makes no outbound network requests, phone-home calls, or telemetry transmissions during execution.
  • No Scraping or Exfiltration: It reads only your specified local config directories (or local checkout folders) and writes directly to your local project workspace.
  • No Destructive Overwrites: By default, Cinch checks if target files exist. If a destination file is already present, Cinch refuses to overwrite it (outcome: "exists"), preserving your hand-crafted configurations.

🛡️ Reporting Security Issues

If you discover a potential security vulnerability or file safety flaw in Cinch:

  1. Private Disclosure: Please report it privately by opening a GitHub Security Advisory.
  2. Issue Tracker: For non-sensitive bugs, feel free to open a standard GitHub issue.

Please describe the environment, the exact CLI command run, and the unexpected behavior. We investigate all security and file-integrity reports promptly.
