Frequently Asked Questions
Is Fozikio free?
Yes. The core application is free and open source under GPL v3. The source code is available on GitHub. Paid features (like pre-built binaries and AI credit bundles) are planned for the future, but the core will always remain free.
Does it collect telemetry or analytics?
No. Zero telemetry, zero analytics, zero tracking. Fozikio doesn't phone home, doesn't check for updates silently, and doesn't know who you are. This is a core principle, not a feature that can be toggled.
What platforms does it support?
Fozikio is built with Electron and runs on:
- Windows (portable .exe and NSIS installer)
- macOS (planned for v0.2)
- Linux (planned for v0.2)
Currently, Windows builds are the most tested. Cross-platform binaries are a priority for the v0.2 release.
Can I use my own AI provider?
Yes. Fozikio supports OpenAI, Anthropic, and Ollama. You bring your own API keys for OpenAI and Anthropic. Ollama runs entirely on your machine with no API key needed.
Will it modify my files?
No. Fozikio is non-destructive by design. It reads your filesystem to display information but never moves, renames, locks, or modifies your files. Git operations (commit, push, pull) are the only write operations, and they go through standard git commands.
Where is my data stored?
All data is stored locally at ~/.fozikio/ in a SQLite database. No cloud sync,
no remote storage. You own your data.
How do I report bugs or request features?
Open an issue on GitHub or join the Discord community.
Can I contribute?
Absolutely. Check out the Contributing Guide for code style rules, conventions, and how to submit pull requests.
