pwliwanow makes Mike run on a laptop, no AI keys required

pwliwanow has bundled everything Mike needs to run on a single machine: a self-contained database and file store, plus seven sample legal documents - an NDA, a share-purchase agreement, a supply contract, a lease and more - to test against. There's also a "fake AI" mode that returns canned answers, so you can click through the entire product without paying for, or even configuring, a connection to Google's or Anthropic's models.

For anyone exposing a test instance beyond their own laptop, the fork adds a password gate so a tunnelled demo isn't wide open to the internet. Worth knowing: the commentary flags that this gate needs verifying before you rely on it, so don't treat it as production-grade security just yet.
