    Data Transmission

    AI commands send regex patterns and test content to api.evolink.ai for analysis by Claude. By setting EVOLINK_API_KEY and using these commands, you consent to this transmission. Data is not stored after the response is returned. The cheatsheet command runs entirely locally and never transmits data.
