Mike renamed to Michi, deployed to Cloudflare Workers at beniauer's domain

beniauer renamed the product across UI, system prompts, and metadata, and wired up an opennextjs-cloudflare deploy config pointing at michi.benjamin-auer.ch. One buried fix - a Turbopack `root` pin - is worth knowing about if your project path contains a space.

The bulk rename (0181f2b) touches nine files: UI strings, page titles, AI system prompts, the tracked-changes author default in docxTrackedChanges.ts, and mike-icon.tsx, which shrinks from 272 lines to roughly 59 as part of the redesign.

1fde0ba is a grab-bag. It mounts the /caselaw route in index.ts with rate limiting - this is the commit that actually activates the Swiss law search page's backend, not the feature commit itself. It also runs npm audit fix on both package-locks and pins root in next.config.ts for Turbopack. That pin is the only thing here with general applicability: without it, Turbopack panics when nested packages are resolved from a directory path containing a space.

32f1b53 finishes the rename, replacing remaining mikeoss.com references in login copy, support page, OpenGraph metadata, and the logo link. It adds frontend/wrangler.jsonc for an opennextjs-cloudflare deploy: compatibility_date: 2025-05-01, nodejs_compat and global_fetch_strictly_public flags, assets bound to .open-next/assets, and a custom domain route for michi.benjamin-auer.ch.

The wrangler config is a usable Workers deploy reference but is wired to beniauer's domain. You'd need to adapt the name, route pattern, and domain.

So what Nothing to import unless you need the Cloudflare Workers deploy config as a starting point or you hit the Turbopack space-in-path panic. Everything else is cosmetic renaming for a personal hosting setup.
