CmdVault Assistant
What it does
CmdVault Assistant is a built-in, Claude-powered chat panel that can act on the app itself: search and create recipes, list your active network ports, and vet a shell command against your safety policy before you run it. It works via a Rust-side tool-use loop streamed to the UI over Tauri events - the assistant never executes commands or reads vault secrets directly.
Where your API key goes:your Anthropic API key never touches the webview. It's entered once, stored AES-256-GCM encrypted in the local vault, and every call to api.anthropic.com happens from the Rust backend.
Choosing a model
A model picker lets you pick between Claude Opus 4.8 (highest capability), Sonnet 5 (balanced), or Haiku 4.5 (fastest/cheapest) depending on what you're asking it to do. Switch any time from the AI Assistant panel's settings.
