●MidShip It

Enables local LLMs in Firefox sidebar, but needs manual about:config edits.

Strengths
  • •History-free by design appeals to privacy-conscious local LLM users
  • •Works with any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, not just OpenAI itself
Weaknesses
  • •Six commits, zero stars — extremely embryonic with no polish
  • •Manual about:config changes required instead of installable extension

Mega LLMs – Universal AI chat client for any OpenAI-compatible API

Plug any OpenAI-compatible provider into a single UI, switch models mid-session, and run side-by-side comparisons while tracking usage — everything you'd expect from a multi-model chat client. The design is eye-catching and the web/desktop split suggests a real app, but this is a crowded niche; the product will live or die on stability of provider integrations, context/memory handling, and clear privacy controls.
