Built in the open
No hidden plumbing.
The MCP agent is a plain HTTP client — it only ever talks to LocalLens's localhost port. Same principle as your data: nothing implicit.
Poke around the source, or debug it live with the MCP Inspector.
Where your data goes
LL Agent
LocalLensThree processes, one machine.
LocalLens holds your photos, and it is open source end to end — AGPL-3.0, the whole application. LL Agent is a wrapper around it and nothing more: a plain HTTP client that reads a port file and talks to 127.0.0.1, linking none of the core. What crosses to Claude is text — counts, folder names, and names you chose yourself. Never image data, and never off this machine.

Where it goes
Writing about LocalLens, or exploring a collaboration? Tell us a bit about the piece or the idea and we'll get back to you.
Questions, feedback, anything else. Not sure where it fits? Start here — we'll route it internally if it belongs somewhere more specific.
Used LocalLens during the free preview? You keep Pro free permanently — that is a promise, not a trial. It is normally detected automatically, but if you have reinstalled or switched machines, say so here and we will sort it out. No proof needed.
Goes straight to the maintainer's inbox. Include what you were doing, what you expected, and what happened instead — a screenshot helps more than a paragraph.
