ebubekirkupe rebuilds Mike to live inside Microsoft Word, on your own machine
A ground-up rewrite turns the cloud app into a local-first desktop tool with an AI redlining assistant built into Word itself.
ebubekirkupe has torn out Mike's cloud foundations and rebuilt it as a desktop application that runs entirely on a single user's computer. Documents and data now live locally rather than on hosted servers, and the AI provider keys you supply are stored encrypted on your own machine behind a password - a setup aimed at one person working privately, not a shared team deployment.
The centrepiece is a task pane that sits directly inside Microsoft Word. It marks up documents using Word's own track-changes and comments, offers risk-insight cards, and - the detail litigators will care about - attaches a one-sentence justification to every suggested edit as a Word comment, so you can see why the AI wants a change before you accept it. A companion piece for connecting other tools is sketched but not yet working.
