Scope

Book Capture is a Claude Code plugin that captures book pages and processes them locally. Security concerns include:

  • Unintended data exposure in OCR output files
  • Command injection via script arguments
  • Accessibility permission abuse
  • Sensitive content in captured screenshots

Local Data

  • Captured screenshots are stored in Books/files/book-captures/ (or your configured captures directory). These contain full page images of copyrighted books — do not commit or share them.
  • OCR batch files are written to /tmp/ocr_batch_* during processing and cleaned up after merging. They contain extracted book text.
  • Kindle Cloud Reader uses a persistent browser profile at ~/.kindle-capture-profile which stores Amazon session cookies. Delete this directory to clear stored credentials: rm -rf ~/.kindle-capture-profile
