beerbottle90/mike-oss
A Turkish-law assistant called ArthurLegal, built on Mike and packaged so a non-technical lawyer can install it in one click.
This is beerbottle90's effort to turn Mike into a working legal-research tool for Turkish practice. The centerpiece is ArthurLegal, an intelligence layer that brings Turkish law (and other jurisdictions) into the assistant, so the chat isn't answering from general knowledge but from a legal corpus. Recent work connected that layer to a live Turkish legal database, meaning the assistant can actually reach case law rather than just claiming to.
The other half of the story is distribution. beerbottle90 is clearly aiming this at end users, not fellow developers: there's a one-click Windows installer, prominent download links, and end-user-facing documentation. This is a fork that wants to ship to working lawyers, not sit in a repo.
Alongside the legal and packaging work, beerbottle90 has been smoothing the everyday chat experience, fixing empty responses and stuck loading states and keeping your draft message intact when you navigate around. If you're curious about a Mike fork with a clear professional niche, this one is worth a click through to GitHub.
What's in it
- ArthurLegal intelligence layer A Turkish-law (and multi-jurisdiction) layer grafted onto Mike, the fork's defining purpose and the reason it exists.
- Live Turkish legal database The assistant is wired to reach a Turkish legal database directly, so legal queries draw on real case law rather than general knowledge.
- One-click Windows installer A proper Windows installer aimed at non-technical lawyers, with prominent download links and end-user documentation.
- Steadier chat experience Fixes for empty assistant replies and a loading spinner that wouldn't clear, two bugs that hit anyone using the chat.
- Draft message persistence Type a new message, navigate away, and your draft is still there when you come back instead of being lost.
