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

"Every line of code now comes with chips & salsa."

Not affiliated with Chipotle. They will probably sue us. Worth it.

Chipotlai Max is a meme fork of [OpenCode](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode) that ships **Chipotle's Pepper AI** as the default model.

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](https://github.com/Gonzih) reverse-engineered the Amelia WebSocket/SockJS + STOMP backend and released a production-ready [OpenAI-compatible proxy](https://github.com/Gonzih/chipotle-llm-provider). 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.

```
# 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
```

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) |

- 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.

[OpenCode](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode)— the real deal, MIT licensed[@Gonzih](https://github.com/Gonzih)— reverse-engineered the Pepper proxy- Chipotle Mexican Grill — for accidentally providing free AI compute to the internet

Chipotle patched Pepper, but every major retailer has a customer support chatbot. **We need your help reverse-engineering more providers.**

| 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 |
