A four-commit afternoon turns this fork into a Danish-market legal assistant with clickable inline citations to primary sources.

A Danish-law spin on Mike: primary-source retrieval with inline citations, plus a tighter backend behind user data.
This fork, run by marklok, is shaping Mike into something with a clear regional focus. The headline move is a retrieval pipeline grounded in Danish primary-source law and EUR-Lex, paired with a citation experience designed to let readers pull up the cited material inline rather than chasing footnotes.
Alongside the legal-content work, marklok is quietly tightening the backbone. User profile data has been pulled off direct database access in the browser and routed through proper backend endpoints - the kind of plumbing change that usually signals someone planning to take the product further, not just demo it.
Direction-wise, this reads as a Danish (and broader EU) legal-research play taking shape on top of Mike's foundations. Click through to GitHub if you want to see how far along it really is.
What's in it
- Danish primary-source legal retrieval A retrieval pipeline focused on Danish law and EUR-Lex, so answers are anchored in the actual source material a Danish practitioner would cite.
- Inline citation pills Citations surface in the answer as clickable pills that open a slide-in panel - readers can verify the source without losing their place.
- Backend-mediated user profiles User profile reads and writes now flow through dedicated backend endpoints instead of the browser talking to the database directly.

User profile reads and writes no longer come from the browser talking straight to the database - they go through the backend now.
