Service eligibility and regional restrictions
PuppyIP serves only compliant overseas businesses and their authorized personnel. Proxy services are not available in mainland China. The service may only be used for lawful business activities outside mainland China. Use of this service within mainland China is prohibited.
Hosting a proxy IP or server overseas does not change these restrictions. The service must not be provided to end users in mainland China through relaying, forwarding, sharing or resale. Before use, read the Terms of Service.
Key Takeaways
- Distinguish web sign-in, desktop tools, command-line tools and API calls first.
- Do not mix project directories, environment variables and keys into chat records or public screenshots.
- Keep the proxy environment stable instead of repeatedly changing exits during sign-in or dependency downloads.
Step 1: Identify how the tool is being used
Common AI development workflows include web conversations, desktop tools, command-line tools and API calls. Each has different requirements for account sign-in, project directories and proxy environments.
For command-line or editor use, confirm the current project directory, permission scope, dependency installation method and test commands. Do not let the tool change files in an unclear directory.
Step 2: Prepare a stable proxy environment
Network conditions can affect AI tool sign-in, dependency downloads, remote documentation and API calls. Work in a stable overseas environment or through a fixed proxy exit, rather than repeatedly changing exits while working.
When a team uses the same type of AI tool, record the account, proxy region, project path and key-storage location. Do not casually copy production keys, customer data or private code into unknown environments.
Step 3: Make security boundaries explicit
AI tools can help write code, diagnose errors and organize documentation, but you remain responsible for protecting account keys, payment information, customer records and production settings. Do not paste `.env`, dashboard passwords or real proxy credentials into public conversations or screenshots.
For a stable fixed exit, visit the PuppyIP website. For basic proxy configuration, see the PuppyIP tutorials.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do AI development tools always need a fixed proxy?
Not in every situation, but a stable proxy environment is more advisable for long-term sign-in, API calls and remote dependency access.
Can I send keys to an AI tool for troubleshooting?
This is not recommended. Share a redacted configuration structure instead; do not directly expose real keys, payment information or customer data.
