stitionai/devika — reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a local web app called Devika, an open source AI software engineer I can chat with. I want to create projects, choose which model to use from common API providers or a local model, add my keys in a settings page, and then give it a simple high level goal like build a feature, fix a bug, or start a small app from scratch.

It should turn my request into steps, do web research when needed, write code for the project, and show me what it is doing while it works. Please include a clean chat interface, project switching, and a visible progress or agent state view so I can follow along and steer it if needed.

Make it runnable locally with a backend server and a separate browser UI. Support the core flow well first, since this project is meant to be early and experimental, and it is okay if some advanced stuff is rough as long as the main experience works. Check current docs online if you need to.
