Summary

Sieve is a macOS app that scans AI coding assistant chat histories (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code Copilot, Windsurf, Codex) for accidentally leaked API keys, tokens, passwords, and private keys. All scanning is performed locally on the device, ensuring privacy. The app helps developers catch secrets that may have been pasted into prompts or appeared in autocomplete suggestions before they cause security breaches.
