PlanBridge

Privacy & Telemetry

PlanBridge is a local-only tool. Your plan content never leaves your machine. The CLI does, however, send anonymous product analytics and crash reports unless you opt out.

What’s collected

Section titled “What’s collected”
  • Anonymous product analytics (PostHog): subcommand invocations, harness detection results, version, OS family. No plan content, no file paths, no source code.
  • Crash reports (Sentry): stack traces and pino error logs from unhandled errors. Scrubbed of plan content.

A randomly-generated anonymous device ID is persisted under $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/contextbridge/ so we can deduplicate active installs without any account or login.

Opt out

Section titled “Opt out”

Set either of these in your environment to disable all telemetry:

Terminal window
export DO_NOT_TRACK=1
# or
export CONTEXTBRIDGE_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=1

PlanBridge respects the Console Do Not Track standard, so DO_NOT_TRACK=1 also turns off analytics in many other CLIs you may use.

Update checks

Section titled “Update checks”

The CLI periodically checks for newer releases. To disable:

Terminal window
export CONTEXTBRIDGE_UPDATE_CHECK_DISABLED=1
