Why El-cro is private by design
A coding agent is powerful enough to deserve explicit endpoints, visible tools, and reviewable changes, without sending your code to a vendor.
Notes from the team

A coding agent is powerful enough to deserve explicit endpoints, visible tools, and reviewable changes, without sending your code to a vendor.
Direct model access, bring-your-own-key, and local models keep you in charge of cost, latency, and data.

El-cro puts you in control of your models, keys, and data.
