Would BugBot clone my code to the cursor server side?

If it’s my private repository, would BugBot also git clone the code to the cursor server side?
I’m quite concerned about the privacy issues.

If BugBot does not clone the repository code, How BugBot work?

Hey! We read your code in order to run BugBot but we do not retain it past the lifetime of the request. You can think of it in the same way as when you use Agent in the product and we adhere to the same privacy mode.

Thanks. So the flow is like this: (When privacy mode is on)

  1. When BugBot find that a new PR generated, it git clone the whole repo code.
  2. Run the Agent to find and report bugs.
  3. After reporting bugs, BugBot will delete the repo code existing on the server.

Is my understanding correct?
If right. Everytime BugBot must git clone the whole repo code? Is that a little bit inefficient？

@jkaplan
In the Cursor settings it says the privacy mode is machine-specific, not account-specific.
So what is it then for BugBot, which is not tied to the machine where the Cursor IDE is running on?

Right now, we treat all BugBot runs as “privacy mode on”, regardless of your settings. Nothing is stored!
