Security & Privacy

  • Data Outbound: This skill sends expense details (cost, description, user IDs) to the Splitwise API.
  • Credentials: Your SPLITWISE_API_KEY is sent in the Authorization header to Splitwise. It never leaves the machine except to communicate with the official Splitwise API.
  • Input: User input for cost and description is handled safely by the Python urllib.request and argparse libraries.
