Score: 7.8/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 9, Utility: 7)

Aura is an LLM coding harness with a Planner/Worker architecture that turns any model into an autonomous software engineer through speculative planning, surgical code editing, validation, and recovery. It is notable for being heavily dogfooded on its own codebase (processing over 1.1 billion tokens) and for its rich tool suite including AST-based editing, BM25 semantic search, sandbox execution, and multi-provider support.

Target audience: backend devs
