Privacy

Agent Relay Desktop is local-first. Your chats, transcripts, and session data live on your own machine. The app is a control plane over agent CLIs that are already installed and authorized locally. It doesn't route your conversations through a server of ours.

What stays on your machine

• Chats and transcripts: every turn is journaled to disk so sessions stay observable and resumable, under your user Library and the Relay home directory (~/.relay/).
• Settings: launch defaults, theme, and preferences are stored locally.
• Agent credentials: never handled by Agent Relay. Each agent CLI manages its own sign-in; the app just launches it.

What leaves your machine

• Agent traffic: when an agent runs, it talks to its own provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Moonshot) exactly as it would from your terminal. That's the agent's connection, under the agent's account, not ours.
• Update checks: the app checks the public release feed for new versions. This is a version lookup, not telemetry, and carries no chat content.

What we don't collect

Agent Relay Desktop does not upload your prompts, code, transcripts, or file changes to us. There is no account to sign into for the app itself.
