Stop switching between your IDE, browser tabs, and chat windows. Aurict runs where you already work, in the terminal, with direct access to your files, shell, and language servers.
The Problem
Most AI coding tools are chat interfaces with code blocks. You spend more time copying context and explaining your stack than actually coding.
What Is Aurict?
Aurict scans your project on startup and understands your framework, conventions, and structure before you type a word. Every operation goes through a permission-controlled layer with clear risk classification. You see exactly what’s happening. Which is unlike others such as:
- Cursor/Copilot Chat
- Continue.dev
- Windsurf
Some developers may just still do manual LLM copy-paste workflows, hey use this one.
What It Does
Breaks complex tasks across specialized agents (code, review, test, security). Executes real file edits and shell commands, not simulated responses. Exposes a local HTTP API for scripting and CI integration.
Features
- Multi-agent orchestration with worker isolation
- 218+ skills for framework-specific context
- SQLite-backed session history with undo
- Auto context compaction
- 150+ design systems with interactive TUI wizard
- MCP server support
- 30+ language LSP integration
Tools
- bash: Shell execution with safe/warning/danger classification
- read/write/edit: File operations with diff preview
- glob/grep: Pattern and regex search
- webfetch/websearch: HTTP and web search
- lsp: Language server diagnostics
- todo: Project task tracking
- apply_patch: Multi-file patches with approval gates
- subagent: Spawn specialist agents inline
Security
Three-tier bash classification, policy sandbox with protected paths and timeouts, per-tool permissions, JWT auth on local API. Optional Docker isolation.
