Why you should sanitize logs before pasting into AI

A practical checklist for masking API keys, bearer tokens, emails, and internal URLs before asking AI to debug your logs.

When you paste logs into an AI chat, you may accidentally leak:

  • API keys and tokens (Bearer, OAuth, session cookies)
  • Emails and phone numbers
  • Internal URLs and infrastructure details
  • Private key blocks

Aimasker helps reduce this risk by masking common patterns locally in your browser.

Quick checklist

  1. Remove tokens and API keys
  2. Remove emails/phone numbers
  3. Remove internal URLs
  4. Review the sanitized text before sharing
