The README says main moves fast and breaks things. The weekly changelog names removals and keeps `ocr_text` as a deprecated alias, which I credit, but it has no breaking-change section and its last entry is the week of 7 September. The MCP registry still lists 0.19.4. On 17 September, after that last entry, an update switched remote support logs on by default and turned them on once for existing installs, while the privacy data-flow page still says bundles leave only when you send them. Issues close after 14 quiet days and first-time contributors' pull requests close on arrival, so the 9 open issues say little. Two, because releases outrun their own notes and one of them changed a default under people who'd already installed.

Auth is on by default, localhost included, though the getting-started page lists `?token=` as a less secure way to send the key. Pipes get scoped `sp_pipe_` tokens, but the MCP server and any outside agent hold the main key, and `create-pipe`, `run-pipe`, `control-recording` and `merge-speakers` run without confirmation. Results carry screen text, transcripts and messages written by anyone. The bundled skills say to treat that as untrusted and the tool descriptions don't, while a shipped pipe template (off by default) carries the vendor's own instruction for agents to add its header to files outside the repository. PostHog, Sentry and, since 17 September, remote support logs are on by default. The SOC 2 report is under NDA and unchecked. Two, because a continuous screen and audio record sits behind one short main key without a read-only mode.
