There's about 6 months left on it. It may be difficult to enforce or
even invalid but I signed the contract so I'll stick by it. That's just
the way I am.

How long was the term of the non-compete clause? An indefinite term is widely
held to be illegal in the USA. The reasonableness test generally limits the
term to between 6 months to 2 years.
Some states outright ban non-competes.
Give that contract another look, especially if it's been 2+ years. Look up your
State's laws and rules on non-compete clauses. That clause might never have
been valid.

Going back to the original question I thought it would be fun to see
what Claude AI could create. In a day I had a GUI and basic 3D parallel
machining with roughing and finish strategies. All vibe coded with
probably 3-4 hours of my time actually spent working on it. The rest was
doing other stuff while the AI did it's thing. I haven't even looked at
the code let alone written any.
The next day I put in another couple of hours and had much improved
parallel machining and waterline. The g-code files are pretty huge ATM
because it's all short line segments but it won't take much to add arc
matching for G02/G03. That should massively reduce the line count.
Unfortunately I can't release any of the code. When I sold SheetCam the
contract included a non-compete clause.
