Deployment & Data

Can I run it on a cloud server?

Yes — you just have to solve the browser/GUI part yourself. Vibe Seller runs fine on a headless server; Ziniao (and the Chrome backend, if you want to watch it work) needs somewhere to render into: a virtual display (Xvfb), a cloud desktop VM, or VNC into a real GUI session all work.

The simpler common setup is a small always-on machine in the office — a Mac mini, a mini-PC running WSL, a spare laptop — that the team reaches over the LAN. Auto-start on boot and crash-restart are set up in Installation.

What happens to my store data?

The database, screenshots, logs and store memory all stay on your own disk under ~/.vibe-seller/ (on Windows: C:\Users\<your-name>\.vibe-seller). There's no cloud storage and no account to register.

Only two things ever leave your machine:

  1. The prompts you send to your LLM provider — these contain whatever page content the agent read. That's the unavoidable cost of having an AI do the work, and it's governed by that provider's privacy terms;
  2. Anonymous usage telemetry — install and task counts only, no store content whatsoever. It's on by default; turn it off under Settings → General → "Anonymous usage telemetry", or set VIBE_SELLER_TELEMETRY=0.

Nothing else goes out. Where Ziniao credentials are stored and who can see them in the UI: Where the credentials are stored.

Where does the agent's memory live?

Per-store knowledge accumulates as plain markdown under ~/.vibe-seller/stores/<store-slug>/ — you can read it, edit it, copy it between machines. Cross-store knowledge lives in ~/.vibe-seller/knowledge/, and Skills are markdown too, under ~/.vibe-seller/.claude/skills/. Nothing is locked inside a binary blob.

You don't have to go digging for it: the Knowledge page in the web UI browses and edits those files, and its AI Chat mode will file what you tell it into the right place. Layout and conventions: Knowledge & Skills.

Why are some buttons in English?

Because those few spots aren't translated yet — the Chinese and English UIs show the same English text: Create & Run (the submit button when you create a task), Chrome (Playwright) (a browser-backend option), Add account (the plus next to Ziniao accounts), Claude Code CLI (the backend name in Settings). The docs quote them exactly as the app shows them, so seeing English in the Chinese UI doesn't mean you're in the wrong place.
