Show HN: LiteChat: A t3.chat cloneathon competitor [video]

I Started a couple month back and stopped because it was getting out of hand... then came the cloneathon.

https://github.com/DimitriGilbert/LiteChat

https://litechat.dbuild.dev/

100% Client-Side with history and multi providers, including Ollama and LMStudio (works best with openrouter though)

Auto titles, multimodal attachements, regen, fork and sumarize.

Editable responses and codeblock with versions history.

You can race multiple models and even combine their responses.

A virtual filesystem with git support plus their tools and conversation sync through git.

Support for MCP server, STDIO support with the provided bridge.

Extended block support with MermaidJS, react-flow and Formedible support ( https://dimitrigilbert.github.io/Formedible/ )

And because monkey copy/paste/replace is a chore, a prompt library, agents (with their tasks) and sequential workflow using prompts from the library/tasks and transform steps. Each step automatically bring the output format for the next one (if it needs) in its system prompt.

TLDR : I wanted to work with AI HARD, I missed features on https://t3.chat So I forged my own set of wheels ! It is not the prettiest to say the least but it works :)
