> Frequently Asked Questions

## General

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Does Chatledger send my data to the cloud?">
    **No.** Chatledger operates entirely locally. It communicates only with the local Antigravity process on your machine. No conversation data is sent to any external server.
  </Accordion>

  {" "}

  <Accordion title="Can I use Chatledger with standard VS Code?">
    **No.** Chatledger relies on specific APIs and the internal architecture of
    the Antigravity IDE. It will not work with the standard Visual Studio Code
    distribution or other forks.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How often does it export?">
    By default, it checks for changes every 5 minutes. You can configure this via the `chatledger.pollInterval` setting (min: 2 mins, max: 120 mins).

## Security

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What happens if I accidentally commit my API key?">
    If you have `chatledger.censorSensitiveContent` enabled, the key should be replaced with `***CENSORED***` in the exported markdown file.

    <Warning>
      Always verify your files before pushing to a public repository, even with censoring enabled.
    </Warning>
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I add my own secret patterns?">
    Yes! You can add custom regex patterns in the `chatledger.additionalSensitivePatterns` setting. See the [Security](/essentials/security) page for details.
