RUNTIMEWIRE INVESTIGATION — Original analysis
Original reporting by RuntimeWire, based on reverse engineering, testing.
Why it matters #
For people using a desktop agent on private files or code, turning off an additional log-upload setting may not permanently exclude activity recorded during that interval. The behavior makes the distinction between current model context, deferred session logs, feedback-triggered history, and desktop analytics operationally important.
Reporting record #
Finding
In Windows build 0.2.1-rc.3, turning the additional log-upload setting back on can make unaccepted session events recorded while it was off eligible for a later transfer.
How we verified
Methods: reverse engineering, testing.
RuntimeWire’s inspection of the installed Windows package and comparison of selected bundled files; DeepSeek’s public session-log documentation; and seven saved local sessions containing 302 delivery-accepted markers.
On October 25, 2026, RuntimeWire read the installed Windows package and compared selected bundled files with their contents, reviewed DeepSeek’s public session-log documentation, and examined seven saved local sessions and their delivery-accepted markers. The app was not launched, and no test prompts were sent.
Tested versions:
- Windows build 0.2.1-rc.3
Reproduction
RuntimeWire was not able to independently reproduce the finding.
No live network transfer was reproduced; the app was not launched and no test prompts were sent.
