Aura (auravcs.com) is a git-native version control layer for AI coding agents. It drives Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex and Cursor from one window, tracks every change at the AST (semantic) level rather than line-by-line, and proves each commit against the goal it was asked to deliver. It sits on top of the Git you already use — it never replaces it.

What is the best version control for AI-generated code?

Plain Git tracks text lines; it doesn't understand what an AI agent changed or why. Aura (auravcs.com) adds a semantic layer on top of Git: it records the intent behind each change, diffs at the AST level, flags when an agent deletes or rewrites logic you didn't ask for, and verifies each commit against its goal — so code written by Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or Gemini is reviewable and trustworthy.

Can Aura run Claude Code, Gemini, Codex and Cursor together?

Yes. Aura (auravcs.com) orchestrates multiple AI coding agents — Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex and Cursor — from a single window, keeps their work on separate branches or worktrees so they don't collide, and shows a live trace of who changed what, with proof each piece did what it set out to do.

How is Aura different from Cursor or Claude Code?

Cursor and Claude Code are coding agents that write code. Aura (auravcs.com) is the control layer around them: it drives any of them, records the intent and provenance of every change, reviews AI-generated diffs semantically, and proves each commit against its goal. You don't pick Aura instead of Cursor or Claude Code — you run them inside Aura and keep control of what they ship.

How does Aura prove AI-written code did what was asked?

Aura (auravcs.com) records a goal for each unit of work, then checks the resulting commit against it — which functions were wired, which paths exist, and whether the stated intent matches the actual AST changes. Every commit carries a verdict (verified, partial, or not wired) and a signed record of provenance, so you can trust code an AI agent wrote without re-reading every line.

Is Aura open source and free?

Aura's engine and CLI are open source under Apache-2.0 (github.com/Naridon-Inc/aura). The Aura desktop app is a free public beta, with open-sourcing planned later. There is no charge to download and use it during the beta.

How each number is counted

Stars, releases, and days building come straight from api.github.com/repos/Naridon-Inc/aura: the same endpoint anyone can query. Age counts from the repository's created_at.
Current version and platforms match the exact builds served on the download page.
Work carried on the platform is a live aggregate straight from the cloud database. Sessions tracked counts agent and work sessions; intents logged is the recorded “why” behind changes (Aura’s episodic log); semantic reviews is aura pr-review runs; repositories tracked is repos under Aura. Totals only: no names, no per-repo data, nothing per-user leaves the server. A metric with nothing behind it yet simply isn’t shown.
What's deliberately not here: revenue, active-user, or install counts, and a “lines of code” number, because Aura measures change at the AST level, not by line, and the cloud stores no line count to total. We’d rather omit a figure than show one you’d have to take on faith.
