Access and privacy
Access: Free
Open-source repository on GitHub. Local or self-hosted use may require API keys, accounts, models, or other third-party services.
Privacy sensitivity: Moderate
Infrastructure, case, or research queries may be logged by GitHub, APIs, model providers, or target services. Minimize identifiers and review scope.
Responsible use
- Verify every AI-generated claim against a primary source.
- Assume anything you send to a hosted model may be logged.
- Keep a human in the loop for any conclusion about a real person.
