Decibel Plugins

Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2026

The Decibel plugin ecosystem (Tools, Homebase, Peers, Superpowers) is designed for local use inside Claude Code. The plugins are MIT licensed, require no account, and collect no personal data. Below is exactly what each plugin accesses and how it is handled.

Local Execution

All plugin skills (Homebase, Peers, Superpowers) run entirely within Claude Code's local sandbox on your machine. No skill code is executed on remote servers. Your prompts and conversations stay between you and Claude.

File System Access

Plugins read files in your project directory to provide context — source files, the .decibel/ folder, .mcp.json, and similar project artifacts. This access is local only and scoped to your working directory. Nothing is uploaded.

Decibel Tools MCP Server

The Tools plugin connects Claude Code to the Decibel Tools MCP server, which runs locally via npx. All tool calls are made from your machine to that local process. No data leaves your machine as part of normal tool use.

Peer Coordination

The Peers plugin communicates between Claude Code instances on your local machine using a message queue stored in .decibel/peers/. No peer messages are sent to external servers.

Plugin Installation

Plugins are installed via the Claude Code CLI from the Decibel marketplace registry. The registry index is fetched over HTTPS to resolve package names. No personal data or project data is sent during installation.

Summary

  • No accounts required. No email, name, or login collected.
  • No data uploaded from your project or conversations.
  • No ad networks. No tracking. No analytics.
  • No data sold to third parties.
  • All plugins are MIT licensed and open source.

Future: Accounts and Pro Plan

Decibel may introduce optional accounts and a paid pro tier in the future. If and when that happens, this policy will be updated before any accounts are created. Any account data collected (such as email address) will be used only to manage your subscription and communicate about the service. It will not be sold or shared with third parties.

The free tier will remain available. Account creation will always be opt-in.
