 "title": "Chat with AI models on a 2007 Nokia phone",
 "page_title": "How to chat with AI models on a 2007 Nokia phone with AIKON",
 "summary": "Deploy the Go server, build the Java ME app and pair an old Nokia to chat with Claude or other models.",
 "who": "A hobbyist with a Nokia S40 or S60 phone who wants AI chat on that handset and is willing to rent a small server.",
 "problem": "Modern AI apps do not run on a 2007 Nokia, and that phone cannot make the modern HTTPS connections those services require.",
 "outcome": "The Nokia runs the AIKON chat app, talks to a self-hosted server with a private CA certificate, and gets replies from the chosen model.",
 "steps": [
  "Rent a Docker host with a public IPv4 address and TCP 443 open.",
  "Create the private root CA and server certificate with `server/scripts/pki.sh ca ~/.config/claude-s40/pki` and `server/scripts/pki.sh server ~/.config/claude-s40/pki`.",
  "Deploy the server in test mode, which makes no API calls, with `server/deploy/push.sh root@<server-ip> --execute`. (inferred, check the README)",
  "Build the phone app with your server address using `echo GATEWAY_URL=https://<server-host> > app/app.local.properties && make -C app`, then install `app/dist/AIKON.jad` and the matching .jar on the phone. (inferred, check the README)",
  "Install the root CA on the phone with `server/deploy/serve-ca.sh`, pair the device by approving the 6-digit code with `server/deploy/admin.sh root@<server-ip> pair <code>`, then add a provider key with `server/deploy/set-key.sh root@<server-ip>` and go live with `S40_MOCK=0 S40_MODELS=... server/deploy/push.sh root@<server-ip> --execute`. (inferred, check the README)"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the AIKON repo, walk me through the setup in docs/SETUP.md for a server at <server-host> and a Nokia <model> phone. List each command in order with the exact placeholder I must fill, and state which step needs a manual action on the phone. Verify by confirming that the test-mode deploy finishes before any key is set.",

 "difficulty": "Advanced",
 "time": "3 hours",

 "caveat": "The Nokia 6300 can only handshake with TLS 1.0 and RSA, so a standard public cloud HTTPS endpoint will not work and you must use the repo's own private CA setup.",

  "A Nokia S40 or S60 phone (tested on the Nokia 6300 and Nokia E63)",
  "A Docker host with a public IPv4 address and TCP 443 open (a $4-6/month VPS is enough)",
  "An API key from at least one provider: Claude, OpenAI, Gemini or Grok",
  "Docker, OpenSSL or LibreSSL, and SSH access to the server",
  "For building the phone app: JDK 11+ and make",
  "For building the server: Go 1.26+"
