Paxel looks like a great way to score a Startup School ticket, but check what it does with your code before you upload.

for security checks and auditing purpose.

what does it do with the code?

Basically it mounts your home directory, then reads your coding agent sessions from .claude, .codex etc. then uses their LLM-proxy to score the agent sessions against a rubric at https://github.com/codesoda/paxel/blob/main/rootfs/rails/db/..., to then score you out of 10.

is this use my llm or their llm

It uses their llm, which is at https://paxel-llm.ycombinator.com.

It's an Anthropic SDK based LLM proxy, though they use GPT5.5 to analyze the transcripts.
