I'm curious about the potential risks involved in sharing my application code in Claude's knowledge base. I get that I shouldn't share sensitive information like API keys or environment variables, and I've been diligent about deleting conversations once they're no longer needed since Claude has a 30-day retention policy for deleted items unless something seems suspicious. I've shared some code, but not the whole app, as I'm not sure how much space is available with the Pro version compared to Max. Am I missing any critical considerations before I continue?

Honestly, a lot of big companies are probably feeding more sensitive info into AI systems than we realize. Just avoid sharing anything like API keys, and you should be fine. The chances of someone hacking your app solely because of what you share here seem pretty low, even if there's a risk involved.
One thing to keep in mind is that they might use what you share to train their models, unless the terms of service say otherwise. It’s worth checking your agreement to be clear about how your data could be used.
These knowledge bases and chat histories could become a serious target if someone decides to hack into them. Just like we’ve seen with data breaches before, it’s only a matter of time before something similar happens in the AI space. On the other hand, not engaging with AI can leave you behind, especially in today’s tech landscape where code sharing has become quite common.
If you're really concerned, you might consider using local LLMs instead of sharing anything online. I feel like relying too much on online models can be risky.
