andrsschultz cuts Mike's cord to Claude and Gemini
This fork rips out the hosted AI providers entirely and points Mike at a local model running on your own machine.
andrsschultz has stripped Claude and Gemini out of Mike and wired in a single local-AI backend instead - the kind you'd run on a workstation or an on-prem server with no internet round-trip. The bring-your-own-key screens, the model picker, the API-key prompts: all gone. There is one provider now, and it lives inside your network.
The plumbing underneath is careful work. The streaming code handles the chatty back-and-forth you need for tool use and for newer reasoning models that show their working. But the headline move is the air-gap: no client data leaves the building, and no per-seat AI bill to a US vendor. The trade-off is equally blunt - you are now responsible for the model, the hardware, and whatever quality gap exists between a local model and the frontier ones.
