OSS IDE for controlling AI coding agents with built in loops
Aura is not another chat box for coding. It is a Git-native IDE for working with AI coding agents. You can run agents, track their changes at the function and class level, compare the code against the original intent, and prove whether a task was actually completed before you commit. Git shows you lines changed. Aura shows you what changed in the logic.
Hey Product Hunt, Mo here, founder of Aura.
When we launched Aura the first time, we honestly did not expect the response we got.
We thought we were launching a semantic version control tool for AI-written code.
Simple idea:
Git shows line changes.
Aura shows logic changes.
But the feedback made the real problem much clearer.
Developers are no longer just using one AI coding assistant. They are using Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini and other agents inside the same repos. These agents can move fast, but the control layer around them is still messy.
Terminal logs.
Scattered chats.
Huge Git diffs.
Unclear intent.
No clean way to prove what the agent actually did.
So we took what we learned from the first launch and rebuilt Aura around that.
Aura is now a Git-native workspace for controlling AI coding agents.
You can run agents from one desktop app, manage tasks, review AI-written code, inspect semantic diffs, track changes at the function/class level, connect work back to intent, and prove whether a task was actually delivered before you commit.
It is not trying to replace Git.
It sits on top of the Git workflow teams already use and gives you a better way to work with agent-written code.
Git tells you what lines changed.
Aura tells you what the agent actually did.
This second launch is our next step: from semantic source control to a full desktop control layer for AI coding agents.
Would love feedback from builders using Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini or multiple agents in real codebases.
Question for everyone:
What is the scariest thing an AI coding agent has changed in your repo without you noticing?
