what it does

The user-facing part.

Optional AI features use your own Anthropic key. Entity extraction is opt-in and off by default. Since 3.9.0, the model-usage meter shows real usage when you add your key.

getting started

Run the loop.

  1. Open your Anthropic developer console.
  2. Generate a new API key.
  3. Open the Uoink dashboard settings.
  4. Paste your API key into the field.
  5. Click Save to store the key in the OS vault.
behind the scenes

How Uoink handles it.

The helper uses the python keyring library to store your API key in the OS vault. On Windows, it calls the Credential Manager APIs. When running an AI analysis, the helper retrieves the key, calls the Anthropic endpoint directly, and writes the output. The key never touches Uoink servers.
