V3Code is built local-first. The intelligence that makes it good — the index, the structural tools, your memory — runs on your machine, not in someone’s cloud.

What stays local

  • Your code. The semantic index is built and stored on-device, and Context Bridge reads your files in-process. Nothing is uploaded to be indexed.
  • Your memory and notes. Workspace notes live in .v3code/notes.json in your project; usage is tracked locally.
  • Your keys. BYOK keys are stored locally, and with local models you can run fully offline.

What leaves your machine, and when

The only traffic V3Code makes is the model calls you choose. On BYOK, that goes straight to your provider with your key. On a hosted plan, it goes to V3Code’s inference. Cloud indexing (a paid feature, or a free fallback if your local index breaks) is the one case where indexed content is processed in the cloud — and it’s opt-in by plan.
