foolish-bandit's Gary picks a side: lawyers who don't want to touch settings
A README rewrite quietly names the wedge driving the rest of the fork's UX work.
Gary, foolish-bandit's fork of Mike, just rewrote its own tagline. The old line described a private, hosted legal AI workspace where you upload documents, ask questions, and get cited answers without managing API keys. The new line keeps all of that, but adds a sharper frame: Gary is aimed at attorneys who are less tech savvy, and explicitly promises they won't be managing API keys themselves.
That's a positioning move more than a feature change. It tells you what the rest of foolish-bandit's work is for - the simplified shells, the hidden plumbing, the choices being made on the user's behalf. The fork is also now openly attributing itself back to Will Chen's Mike, signalling it sees itself as a variant, not a competitor.
