What LLM is it using? Is it something local? Or does it call out? It wasn't obvious from the docs, and I didn't want to dig through all of the code to figure it out. Should probably be clearly stated on the front page.

But the project looks interesting, I have been looking for something similar.

It uses openai.

This uses OpenAI's GPT-4o model.

The requests involve relatively long context windows, which require high-quality reasoning. Only recent high-performance models like GPT-4o or Claude Sonnet are capable of reducing the manual workload for this kind of task.
