I Built an app around Karpathy's LLM Wiki pattern for personal reading — I'm looking for beta testers

bōkpanion is an iPhone app for readers with a Karpathy-style LLM wiki at its core. You have a Socratic conversation about a book (the AI is instructed to push back, ask deeper questions), and the app builds a wiki from your discussion. Entity pages, theme pages, reader insight pages. Cross-referenced automatically. With several books, you start to notice connections you didn't notice yourself.

There's also a "reader portrait" feature — the app generates a description of your intellectual personality: recurring questions, strongest theories, blind spots. It's the most uncomfortably accurate thing I've built. Read. Think. Discuss. Grow.

Architecture is SwiftUI / SwiftData, Claude via Anthropic API, with Apple Intelligence as a free on-device fallback. Everything is stored in your Apple Cloud, so it stays private. All your saved data can be backed up and exported as OKF files.

I'm looking for 20 beta testers — serious readers with opinions. Apply here. thanks!
