Private

Private is a skill for Claude Code from CarbeneAI/Forge. It costs 70 tokens per session (763 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A privacy router that sends selected prompts to a Gemma AI model running locally through Ollama. Ollama runs AI models on your own machine or local network.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use the private command for local analysis when the prompt must stay on the machine and does not need current online information.
Why use it?
It keeps sensitive prompts such as financial, medical, personal, or client information off cloud services.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

Private scanned grade B with 2 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (tools/private-query.ts), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

curl http://localhost:11434/api/generate -d '{"model":"gemma4:31b","prompt":"hello","stream":false}'

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 96 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Private - Local AI Privacy Router

Route queries to Gemma4 31B on your local Ollama server. Data never leaves your local machine.

How It Works

When invoked, this skill:

  1. Takes your prompt
  2. Sends it to Gemma4 31B via Ollama on localhost:11434
  3. Returns the response inline — Claude orchestrates, but never sees your prompt content

Usage

/private What are the financial projections for client XYZ?
/private Analyze this medical report: [paste]
/private Review these employee performance notes

Workflow

When the user invokes /private:

  1. Extract the user's prompt (everything after /private)
  2. Run the query tool:
bun ${PAI_DIR}/skills/Private/tools/private-query.ts "<prompt>"
  1. Return the Ollama response to the user verbatim — do NOT summarize or rephrase it

Available Models

Model Size Best For
gemma4:31b (default) 31.3B General intelligence, reasoning, analysis
dolphin3:8b-llama3.1-fp16 8.0B Fast responses, uncensored
dolphin3:8b 8.0B Fast responses, lower VRAM
llama3.1:latest 8.0B General purpose

Options

/private <prompt>                          # Default: gemma4:31b
/private --model dolphin3:8b <prompt>      # Use specific model
/private --system "You are a CFO" <prompt> # Custom system prompt
/private --temperature 0.3 <prompt>        # Lower temp for precision

Privacy Guarantees

  • Data stays on your local machine — never sent to Anthropic, OpenAI, or any cloud
  • No logging by third parties
  • No API keys transmitted
  • Suitable for HIPAA/PCI-sensitive data
  • Ollama runs on localhost:11434 (not exposed externally by default)

When to Use

Scenario Use /private?
Client financial data Yes
Medical/health information Yes
Employee reviews or HR data Yes
Proprietary business strategy Yes
Code with trade secrets Yes
General coding questions No — use Claude
Web research needed No — use Claude/Research
Latest information needed No — Ollama has training cutoff

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

Private is a skill published in the GitHub repository CarbeneAI/Forge (9 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 70 tokens to every session and 763 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (sends data to an external url, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
