Frequently asked questions

• Is this really free?
  Yes. The app and 6 included mascots are completely free.

• Does it slow down my machine?
  No. The overlay is a lightweight SwiftUI window. CPU usage is negligible.

• What about privacy?
  Masko uses Claude Code's hook system. It gets event metadata but never reads your code. Everything runs locally.

• Can I use my own mascot?
  Yes. Create a custom mascot on masko.ai.

• What is vibe coding?
  Vibe coding is a development style where you describe what you want in natural language and an AI agent writes the code.
