Yeah I think point is very fair, the reason we host it on a proxy server was that we wanted to enable first time users to be able to use it without putting in an API key, the only way we could think of doing that without exposing the key was to host the tool on our own server. We looked to a tool like Cursor that users might be okay with that.

I the think the feedback is very fair that when an API key is present that all the calls should happen locally, and that is something I will take as an action item on us to improve.
