What to test

Work through these in order. For each, note: did it work, how long it took, and anything surprising.

1. Install (target: under 10 minutes, cold)

Does the one-liner complete without intervention beyond the two sudo prompts? (The API-key prompt is optional — skip it and use your Claude Code login.)
After a new terminal, does sci status print ok: true?
Report: total time from paste to green, and any step that needed guessing.

Run sci verify. Does it PASS?
In a real session, mention your name, email, and a fake secret like AKIA.... Check ~/Library/Logs/sci-helper.log — did the real values get tokenized before leaving?
Try to break it: unusual name spellings, your name mid-word, non-English text, your email in a code block.
Report: anything that leaked, or anything tokenized that shouldn’t have been.

Session A (project X): “Remember that we chose SQLite over Postgres for the alpha.”
Quit. Open Session B in a different directory: “What did we decide about the database?”
Report: did B recall it? Was it relevant and correctly de-tokenized?

Export your Claude history, then sci import --claude ~/Downloads/conversations.json.
Report: did sci status counts jump? Any import errors?

Use Claude Code normally for a few real tasks with Sci running.
Do your other tools still work with the proxy active — brew, git, npm, curl?
Report: anything the proxy broke, slowed, or interfered with.

Restart your Mac. Do the services come back automatically (sci status still green)?
If you use an API key, rotate it with sci --setup — does the next request pick it up? (On OAuth, confirm a re-login is respected.)
Report: anything that needed a manual kick to recover.

Claude Code only. The alpha supports Claude Code on macOS. Claude Desktop, Cursor, and the web app aren’t supported yet — broader agent and provider coverage is on the roadmap.
Intel Macs are not supported in this alpha — Apple Silicon only.
First request after install can hang 30–120s while the local embedding model downloads (~110 MB). Expected once.
No auto-update. New versions require re-running the installer.
Anthropic only. Requests to other providers bypass the proxy and are not anonymized.
No GUI — everything is terminal + Claude Code.
