Frequently asked questions
Is my GitHub token or API key ever sent to your servers?▾
No. InsomniDev runs entirely on your Mac. Your GitHub credentials (managed by the gh CLI) and your Claude tokens never leave your machine. We have no backend that receives them.
Does InsomniDev commit directly to my main branch?▾
Never. InsomniDev creates a new branch for each issue and opens a pull request. You review, test, and merge on your own schedule. Exactly like you would with any contributor.
What if Claude produces bad or broken code?▾
That's what the PR review step is for. The AI produces a pull request, not a direct commit. You stay in control of what lands in your codebase. The run log lets you inspect every action the bot took.
Will InsomniDev burn through my Claude Code tokens?▾
Only if you configure it to use Claude. InsomniDev supports both Claude Code and Gemini CLI. Many users run it on Gemini's free tier overnight so their Claude budget stays completely intact for interactive daytime coding. If you do use Claude, it runs on your existing Anthropic plan, we never bill your account.
Can I run it on Gemini instead of Claude?▾
Yes. InsomniDev supports both Claude Code and Gemini CLI. Configure it to use Gemini's free tier and overnight runs cost you nothing, keeping your Claude tokens reserved for the work that actually needs your attention.
What macOS version do I need?▾
macOS 13 Ventura or later. Both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs are supported.
What happens when the 7-day trial ends?▾
The app stops running nightly jobs. Your settings, logs, and state are all preserved. Purchase a license at any time to re-activate. Nothing to reinstall.
Can I use one license on multiple Macs?▾
Yes. A single license covers up to 3 device activations, so you can use InsomniDev on your home machine, work machine, or laptop.
