A near-untouched Mike fork whose only visible work is a tight set of backend security fixes proposed by abbyshekit.
This is a fork of Mike that sits right on top of upstream - there's nothing here you'd try out that differs from the original app itself. What abbyshekit has actually done shows up as focused backend hardening: a small, deliberate set of security and operational fixes aimed at the Express backend rather than any new legal-tech feature.
The work reads like a careful contributor's, not a product builder's. abbyshekit's changes close concrete exposures - an access check that was being skipped when creating a chat, sensitive user data being written to disk on every request, and a signing secret that fell back to an insecure default when none was configured. Each is surgical and self-contained, filed as PR-style fixes without touching schema, dependencies, or unrelated formatting.
Beyond the handle itself we don't have signal on who abbyshekit is, and there's no rebrand, niche, or deployment story to speak of yet. If you're curious, the interesting material is the security work - click through to GitHub to read it.
What's in it
- Access-check hardening Closes a chat-creation path that skipped verifying the caller actually had access to the project.
- PII kept off disk Stops sensitive user data from being written to logs on every request to the chat stream.
- No insecure secret fallback Removes a signing path that silently accepted an insecure default secret when no real key was set.

abbyshekit goes leak-hunting in Mike's backend
Three small, targeted security fixes, each closing a concrete way access or client data could slip out - though the pull request was closed minutes after it was filed, so none of it actually landed.
Three backend security fixes: missing auth check on chat create, PII written to disk, hardcoded signing secret
abbyshekit's PR closes three independent backend gaps: a chat-creation endpoint that skipped project access verification, a Claude SSE stream logger that was writing PII to disk on every request, and a download-URL signer that silently accepted `dev-secret` when no real key was configured.
