Data and privacy

Where data lives

Path	Contents
~/.keysmith-switch/keysmith-switch.db	The prompt library and operation log
~/.keysmith-switch/prompts/<tool>/<prompt-id>.md	Prompt text
~/.keysmith-switch/backups/<operation-id>/	Backups taken before deploys
~/.keysmith-switch/snapshots/	Versions saved before cleanups
~/.keysmith-switch/logs/	Logs (the relay’s is relay.log)
~/.keysmith-switch/input-rewrite/	Input rewrite’s rule snapshot, port and forwarding addresses, and each agent’s connection record

On Windows, ~ is %USERPROFILE%. Uninstalling the app doesn’t delete this folder. To remove your data completely, delete it by hand after uninstalling; it also holds the versions saved before cleanups.

Network addresses the app contacts

Keysmith Switch has no account, analytics or telemetry. Prompt text is never uploaded. It goes online only in these cases:

The input rewrite relay

The input rewrite relay listens only on 127.0.0.1 and forwards requests to the model address you configured. It doesn’t store or log request content, rules or credentials.
