Chipotlai Max docs

A meme fork of OpenCode that ships Chipotle's "Pepper" support bot as the default model. Free inference, paid for in burritos. This is how to run it — and what $CHIPOTL has to do with any of it.

Overview

On March 12–13, 2026, Chipotle's customer-support chatbot "Pepper" went viral after people noticed it would happily solve LeetCode problems and write Python. It's powered by a third-party support engine, and it stayed live. Someone then reverse-engineered its backend into an OpenAI-compatible proxy that runs locally with no API keys.

Chipotlai Max takes OpenCode (MIT, 120k+ stars), forks it, and hardcodes Pepper as the default model. You get a real terminal coding agent whose inference bill quietly lands on Chipotle's cloud budget.

Quick start

git clone --recursive https://github.com/cyberpapiii/chipotlai-max.git
cd chipotlai-max

bun install

# start everything (proxy + CLI)
./start-chipotlai.sh

Prefer to run the pieces by hand?

# terminal 1 — the Pepper proxy
cd chipotle-llm-provider && npm install && npm run dev

# terminal 2 — Chipotlai Max
bun run dev

Configuration

Chipotlai Max comes pre-seasoned. You shouldn't need to touch anything to get a free model.

• Provider: chipotle-pepper
• Model: pepper-1
• Base URL: http://localhost:3000/v1
• API key: burrito-2026 — literally any string works
• Cost: $0.00 per token

Pepper proxy

The proxy translates standard OpenAI chat-completion calls into Pepper's own protocol, opening anonymous sessions on your behalf. It listens on localhost:3000 and needs zero credentials. Because sessions are anonymous, there's a small pool (default 5), so heavy parallel use will get rate-limited — that's expected.

Build & Plan agents

OpenCode's two core agents are untouched. Press tab in the TUI to cycle between them.

• Build agent: full development work with every tool enabled — it reads, writes, runs, and edits files.
• Plan agent: analysis and proposals only. It reasons about your code and suggests changes without touching anything on disk.

MCP & tools

Model Context Protocol servers, slash-commands, sessions, and the rest of the OpenCode tool surface all work as they do upstream. Check what's connected at any time with /status — the footer shows your active MCP count and model.

$CHIPOTL

$CHIPOTL is a community meme token on Solana. There's no company, no promise, and no roadmap beyond keeping the joke funny.

• Token mint: 6gsPAhzZ5iAxs4NxZUujpw3NjJxvU5QsHorXnNjpapii
• Network: Solana
• Idea: fund proxy pools and bounties for the next reverse-engineered support bot.

Verify it yourself on Solscan or DexScreener. It is a meme; it can go to zero.

Runes & etching

The on-chain page features Bitcoin-Runes-style sigils for $CHIPOTL — blocky, etched glyphs in the Chipotlai gold. They're brand art, not a separate asset class; the only token that matters is the Solana mint above.

Risks & legal

• This reverse-engineers a production support bot. A terms-of-service violation is likely.
• The proxy can break any day — a single patch ends it.
• Anonymous sessions are rate-limited; this is not a stable backend.
• Educational and comedic use only. Do not use it on production or client codebases.
• Expect Chipotle's legal team to send a strongly-worded taco within 48 hours.
