umerkay/mike

A focused Mike fork that gives the assistant a practical web-research arm for live online investigation.

This looks like a small, focused early effort, with one tracked change and the last observed push in May 2026.

umerkay is steering Mike toward research that reaches beyond uploaded material. The fork proposes a single, authenticated research surface for reading supplied web pages, asking questions against them, exploring sites, and understanding their structure.

For someone trying it, the appeal is straightforward: bring live web material into the assistant's research process rather than treating the web as outside the workspace. MikeWatch has no further identity signal for umerkay, but the direction is clear and narrowly focused; GitHub is the place to explore the detail.

umerkay gives Mike a web-research arm

Four new endpoints let the assistant pull live content off the open web - scrape a page, ask a question and get a sourced answer, or map and crawl a whole site.

umerkay adds Olostep web research endpoints behind optional dependency

Four backend POST endpoints at `/api/research` - scrape a URL to Markdown, run an AI Q&A against a page, start a multi-page crawl, or discover site URLs - all gated behind an optional `olostep` SDK install and `OLOSTEP_API_KEY` env var. Absent the key, every call returns an error string; nothing breaks on boot.
