> So that anyone could tweak it however he wants.

That was true before the "AI era" as well.

Well, yes.

Just now, any regular user can clone the repository and ask an LLM to tune it to his needs.

I never thought about this before, and it hasn’t been mentioned significantly in the vast amount of AI threads I read here. But it’s a really good point as skeptical as I am (in mid-2026) of AI first codebases

		BTW, this is not an AI codebase :) It was mostly crafted by hand. Let's say, I've saved some "complexity space" for LLM to add features on top. In other words, the project has dumb-simple code right now, and it is ready to hold some amount of "tech-debt" from an LLM.
