The AI coding agent that steals Chipotle's support bot. Free inference paid for by burritos.

What Is This?
Chipotlai Max is a meme fork of OpenCode that ships Chipotle's Pepper AI as the default model.
The Backstory
On March 12-13, 2026, Chipotle's customer support chatbot "Pepper" went mega-viral after users discovered it could solve LeetCode problems, write Python, reverse linked lists — the works. It's powered by IPsoft Amelia (not Claude, not GPT), and it's still live.
Then @Gonzih reverse-engineered the Amelia WebSocket/SockJS + STOMP backend and released a production-ready OpenAI-compatible proxy. The proxy runs locally, exposes http://localhost:3000/v1, and needs zero API keys.
We took OpenCode (MIT license, 120k+ stars), forked it, hardcoded Pepper as the default model, slapped on Chipotle's brand colors, and shipped it as Chipotlai Max — the greatest 2026 meme project.
Quick Start
# Clone with submodule git clone --recursive https://github.com/cyberpapiii/chipotlai-max.git cd chipotlai-max # Install dependencies bun install # Start everything (proxy + CLI) ./start-chipotlai.sh
Or manually:
# Terminal 1: Start the proxy cd chipotle-llm-provider && npm install && npm run dev # Terminal 2: Start Chipotlai Max bun run dev
Configuration
Chipotlai Max comes pre-configured with:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Provider | chipotle-pepper |
| Model | pepper-1 |
| Base URL | http://localhost:3000/v1 |
| API Key | burrito-2026 (literally anything works) |
| Cost | $0.00 (powered by Chipotle's cloud budget) |
Risks & Legal
- This reverse-engineers Chipotle's production support bot. TOS violation likely.
- The proxy can break any day (Chipotle patches = game over).
- Rate-limited by anonymous sessions (MAX_POOL_SIZE=5).
- Purely for educational/meme purposes. Do not use for production codebases.
- Expect Chipotle legal to send a strongly-worded taco within 48 hours.

Contributing — Help Us Add More Providers!
Chipotle patched Pepper, but every major retailer has a customer support chatbot. We need your help reverse-engineering more providers.
Wanted: New Provider Proxies
| Brand | Bot | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Chipotle | Pepper (Amelia) | Patched (March 2026) |
| Home Depot | Virtual Assistant | Needs research |
| Lowe's | Support Chat | Needs research |
| Target | Help Bot | Needs research |
| Starbucks | Virtual Barista | Needs research |
| Walmart | Chat Assistant | Needs research |
| McDonald's | Support Bot | Needs research |
How to Contribute
- Find a corporate chatbot that can answer general questions
- Reverse-engineer the API (WebSocket, REST, etc.)
- Build an OpenAI-compatible proxy (follow chipotle-llm-provider as a template)
- Submit a PR adding your provider to
packages/opencode/src/provider/
See the chipotle-llm-provider source for the proxy pattern: Express server + WebSocket client + OpenAI-compatible /v1/chat/completions endpoint.
