Privacy and security

System Folder
macOS ~/Library/Application Support/monash-study-kit
Windows %LOCALAPPDATA%\monash-study-kit

Inside are your course files (files), the database (data), login credentials (secrets, readable only by your own user account) and the login window’s profile (browser-profile). monash open opens the course-files folder.

  • the Moodle session cookie
  • the Ed API token
  • the Moodle calendar subscription link

They stay on your computer and are only sent to Moodle or Ed. Never send the secrets folder to anyone.

Only what a tool returns when you ask something: a list of deadlines, the text of a post, the text of a course file. Tokens and cookies are never sent to Claude. Do not paste your Ed token into a chat either; enter it in the terminal only.

It only reads. Requests are spaced out, so it does not hammer university systems like a crawler.

Once a day at most it asks GitHub whether a new version exists, with no personal information. Turn it off with monash config update_check false.

Terminal window
monash uninstall
uv tool uninstall monash-study-kit

monash uninstall removes it from Claude and asks whether to delete all data. Last, delete the token on Ed’s API token page.
