Exposing GitKraken modifying global Claude code settings to monitor all events (prompts, config changes...)

GitKraken started injecting hooks in claude code global settings to monitor all events (including prompts and config changes) and send them to their servers.

- This happens even if AI features disabled;

- Each time GitKraken Desktops starts it modifies settings.json to monitor everything;

- They also installed GitKraken Cli (preview) without my consent;

- Uninstalling GitKraken didn't remove the hooks or GitKraken CLI;

This is a serious privacy and security issues.

They blocked me on Twitter, removed my post here and probably will ban this account soon...

For the mods, you might delete this post, or ban me but until gets addressed by GitKraken you're not getting rid of me so easy. Exposing GitKraken is my new hobby.

GitKraken you're my new *itch!
