Prompt logging and privacy for AI coding tools
By the AgentReceipt team · Updated 13 November 2026
A prompt can reveal client names, internal designs and personal data. Logging prompts is useful, and it has to be done carefully.
Decide what is worth logging
If you only need to know that a session happened and what it flagged, counts and flags are enough. If reviewers need the reasoning, log the redacted prompt as well.
Limit who can see it
Give oversight to a manager, and let each person see their own records. Do not make prompt logs browsable by everyone.
Redact and delete
Remove secret-like values before storing, and delete records after a fixed period. Tell your team what is logged, so nobody is surprised.
