# Telemetry
|
||||
|
||||
CodeGraph collects a small set of **anonymous usage statistics** — which commands and
|
||||
tools get used, which languages get indexed, which agents drive usage — so we can tell
|
||||
which of the 20+ languages and 8 agent integrations deserve the most work. This page is
|
||||
the complete list of what is collected. If a field isn't on this page, it isn't collected;
|
||||
the ingest endpoint enforces this list as an allowlist and is itself
|
||||
[public, auditable code](telemetry-worker/) in this repository.
|
||||
|
||||
## Turning it off
|
||||
|
||||
Any of these works, permanently:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
codegraph telemetry off # stores your choice (and deletes any unsent data)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
export CODEGRAPH_TELEMETRY=0 # per-shell / per-CI override
|
||||
export DO_NOT_TRACK=1 # the cross-tool standard — always honored
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`codegraph telemetry status` shows the current state, what decided it, and your machine ID.
|
||||
The interactive installer (`codegraph install`) asks up front with a visible default-on
|
||||
toggle and never re-asks. If you never saw the installer (e.g. `npx` straight into `init`),
|
||||
a one-line notice is printed to stderr before the first time anything is sent.
|
||||
|
||||
Off means off: when disabled, CodeGraph records nothing, opens no connection to the
|
||||
telemetry endpoint, and sends no "opted out" ping.
|
||||
|
||||
Separately from telemetry, the MCP server checks GitHub for a newer release in the
|
||||
background (at most once a day) so it can tell you an update exists — it fetches a
|
||||
version number and sends nothing about you or your machine. `DO_NOT_TRACK=1` disables
|
||||
this check too; to turn off only the update check, use `CODEGRAPH_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1`.
|
||||
|
||||
## What is collected
|
||||
|
||||
Every payload carries this envelope:
|
||||
|
||||
| field | example | notes |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| `machine_id` | `b3a8c1…` | random UUID minted on first send — derived from nothing |
|
||||
| `codegraph_version` | `0.9.9` | |
|
||||
| `os` / `arch` | `darwin` / `arm64` | platform identifiers only |
|
||||
| `node_major` | `22` | major version only |
|
||||
| `ci` | `false` | whether the `CI` env var was set |
|
||||
| `schema_version` | `2` | bumped when this page changes (v2 dropped the `index` event's `sqlite_backend` field) |
|
||||
|
||||
And one of four events:
|
||||
|
||||
- **`install`** — when `codegraph install` configures agents: which agents
|
||||
(`["claude","cursor",…]`), global vs project-local, and whether it was a fresh install,
|
||||
an upgrade, or a re-run.
|
||||
- **`index`** — when a full index completes: the **language names** present (e.g.
|
||||
`["typescript","go"]`), the file count as a **coarse bucket** (`<100`, `100-1k`,
|
||||
`1k-10k`, `10k+`), and the duration as a bucket (`<10s`, `10-60s`, `1-5m`, `5m+`).
|
||||
- **`usage_rollup`** — one line per day per tool: the tool or CLI command **name** (e.g.
|
||||
`codegraph_explore`, `init`), how many times it ran, how many errored, and — for MCP
|
||||
tools — the connecting agent's name and version from the MCP handshake (e.g.
|
||||
`Claude Code 2.1`). The Claude Code prompt hook also counts its **gate decision**
|
||||
(fired fully, fired as a hint, or did nothing — fixed counter names like
|
||||
`prompt-hook-gate-medium-segment`); the prompt itself is never read, stored, or sent.
|
||||
- **`uninstall`** — when `codegraph uninstall`/`uninit` runs: which agents were removed.
|
||||
|
||||
Usage is **aggregated locally into daily totals** before anything is sent — there is no
|
||||
per-call event stream, and nothing is sent in real time.
|
||||
|
||||
## What is never collected
|
||||
|
||||
- **No source code.** No file paths, file names, directory names, repository names or
|
||||
URLs, symbol names, search queries, or anything else derived from the contents of an
|
||||
indexed project.
|
||||
- **No IP addresses.** The ingest endpoint never reads, logs, or forwards the client IP,
|
||||
and IP discarding is enabled at the analytics backend on top of that. No geolocation.
|
||||
- **No fingerprinting.** The machine ID is a random UUID stored in
|
||||
`~/.codegraph/telemetry.json` — delete that file (or run `codegraph telemetry off`,
|
||||
then `on`) and the old ID is gone forever, with no way to reconnect it.
|
||||
- **No personal data.** No usernames, hostnames, emails, or environment variables.
|
||||
|
||||
## How it travels
|
||||
|
||||
Events POST to `telemetry.getcodegraph.com` — a first-party endpoint whose complete
|
||||
source lives in [`telemetry-worker/`](telemetry-worker/) in this repository. It validates
|
||||
every event and property against the allowlist above (anything else is dropped), strips
|
||||
IPs, rate-limits, and forwards to a managed analytics store (PostHog, US region) as
|
||||
anonymous events. Sends are fire-and-forget with a short timeout: offline or air-gapped
|
||||
machines buffer a bounded local file (256 KB cap) and never retry-loop, log errors, or
|
||||
slow a command down. Telemetry never adds latency to MCP tool calls — recording is an
|
||||
in-memory counter.
|
||||
|
||||
The engineering contract behind all of this — including the rule that schema changes must
|
||||
update this page, the client, and the public endpoint in one PR — is in
|
||||
[`docs/design/telemetry.md`](docs/design/telemetry.md).
