simkjels wires Mike up to Azure OpenAI

simkjels has added Azure OpenAI as a third model provider alongside the Claude and Gemini options Mike already shipped with. For legal teams, the appeal is straightforward: many firms and in-house departments already have their data, identity, and compliance posture sitting inside Microsoft Azure, and routing AI calls through an Azure-hosted OpenAI deployment keeps everything inside that perimeter rather than sending prompts to a separate vendor.

The work went through a few iterations. An early version used Microsoft's older, Azure-specific connection style; simkjels reworked it to use Azure's newer endpoint that behaves just like the standard OpenAI one, which is simpler and likely to age better. A small follow-up fixed a bug where the new provider didn't actually show up in the model picker - the kind of plumbing detail that's easy to miss until a user tries to switch models.
