Security

Your code stays on your machine.

Command Center is a local-first Windows app. Sessions run on your PC and talk to Anthropic with your own key. This page lists what leaves the machine, what never does, and how to report a problem to us.

Last updated 3 November 2026. Questions: use the contact form and choose Security.

Local first, drawn as it runs.

Everything inside the outlined box is your PC. Each line out of it is a connection you can name, and three of them exist only when you turn the feature on.

always on while you use the apponly when you turn the feature on
Fig. 1The connections Command Center makes. There is no Command Center cloud that stores your code or transcripts. The account service is not open yet; when it opens, it will hold billing facts only.

Your API key: encrypted, never logged.

You add your Anthropic API key in Settings, then Accounts. From that moment it lives in one place on your PC and appears nowhere else.

  • Encrypted on device. Keys are stored encrypted with your Windows account, so another user on the same PC cannot read them.
  • Read only when a session starts. The key is passed to that session's process and to nothing else.
  • Never logged or rendered. Keys are stripped from logs and from child processes that do not need them. The app shows the last four characters only.
  • Never copied between PCs. You add keys on each machine.
  • Never sent to us. The account service we will open with accounts has no field for an API key.

What leaves your machine, and what never does.

The full list. If a connection is not in the left table, Command Center does not make it.

leavesWhat leaves, and where it goes

Each row is a connection you can switch off, except the first and the last.

Prompts, file contents and tool results a session sendsTo the Anthropic API, with your key, under your agreement with Anthropic.
Questions, status and your answersTo your paired phone, over Tailscale. Only if you turn on Remote.
Settings and session history PlannedPlanned: to your second PC, on Pro and above, if you turn on sync. Not in the early-access build.
Sessions you run for a company you shareTo your Team Hub, after redaction on your PC. Only on Team and above.
Email, plan, member count, app versionWhen accounts open, to our account service, for sign-in, licence checks and update notices.

staysWhat never leaves

These stay on your PC whatever you turn on.

  • Your Anthropic API keys.
  • Your code and repositories, apart from what a session sends to Anthropic to do its work.
  • Transcripts and reports, unless a session is uploaded to your Team Hub.
  • The contents of review pages and your notes on them.
  • Usage analytics about what you type or which files you open. We do not collect any.

Remote, redaction and checkpoints.

The three features that reach beyond one session each have a boundary built in.

  • Phone remote over a private network

    The remote listens on your PC's Tailscale address and on 127.0.0.1, and on nothing else. It is never bound to a public interface, and no port is opened to the internet.

    • A phone must be on your Tailscale network and paired with a one-time code.
    • A request from the PC itself gets no special trust.
    • Remove a paired device from Settings and it loses access at once.
  • Team Hub redaction

    Sessions you run for a company you share are uploaded to the Hub automatically. Before upload, keys, tokens and passwords in the transcript are replaced on your PC.

    • Token-shaped strings such as API keys, bearer tokens and private keys.
    • Credentials inside URLs, such as git remotes.
    • The value after a label such as token, secret, password or api key.
  • Permissions and checkpoints

    In a coordinated job, a command that sends to an audience, starts a paid generation or deploys stops at a checkpoint and waits for you. Other sessions use Claude Code's own permission prompts.

    • A held command shows the session as waiting until you answer.
    • Approve lets the command run; Change sends the job a note; Cancel stops it.

Subprocessors.

The companies we use to run this website, the account service and email. None of them receives your code, transcripts or API keys.

No payments are taken yet. Paid plans will be billed through a payment provider that we name here before billing starts. We notify customers 30 days before adding a subprocessor.

  • Anthropic is your provider

    Model requests go from your PC to Anthropic under your own agreement with them. Anthropic is not our subprocessor for your data.

  • Compliance

    SOC 2 is on our roadmap. We do not hold a certification today and will say so here until we do.

  • Legal documents

    Read the privacy policy, the data processing agreement and the terms.

  • Security review

    Enterprise customers can request our security questionnaire answers through the contact form (topic Sales).
