Aura IDE is a local, open source AI coding harness with Planner/Worker agents, visible write status, safe file edits, and Craft code quality checks. Shape the workflow, swap providers, and keep control of the version that works for you.



Quick Aura update:
I used the latest Aura release to build Signal Desk, a local lead discovery and outreach tool.
The workflow was:
spec → phased build → Worker runs → validation → finished MVP
Signal Desk scans sources, scores relevant conversations, writes inbox cards, and helps draft replies.
The surprising part: the full build ran on cheap models and cost about ten cents in model usage.
I wrote up the workflow here:

Love the focus on local-first and open-source here. The Planner/Worker agent split is exactly how complex, multi-step coding tasks should be handled. But what really catches my eye is the "safe file edits" and visible write status—there is nothing worse than an LLM blindly nuking a file or hallucinating its way through a repository. Being able to swap providers and avoid vendor lock-in makes this a massive win. Definitely going to spin this up locally!

Really appreciate this, and huge congrats on your launch today.
That trust piece is exactly why I built Aura. I wanted an AI coding workflow where the plan, file edits, write status, and validation are visible instead of hidden behind a black box.
