Overview

AURA is a TOML-based configuration system for composing Rig.rs AI agents with MCP tools and RAG pipelines.

Current Status: Production Ready

All major features complete:

• Bounded streaming with custom aura events
• Rig 0.28 upgrade with ProviderAgent architecture
• Configurable MCP header forwarding (headers_from_request with static TOML fallback)
• Request-scoped MCP progress and cancellation
• Client disconnect detection with MCP notifications/cancelled
• Multi-agent orchestration mode with coordinator/worker architecture and DAG execution

Pending: Upstream Rig PRs - StreamingPromptHook fix + Content-Type header fix

Quick Start

# Build
cargo build --release

# Start web server (default config.toml)
cargo run --bin aura -- webserver

# Start with orchestration config
CONFIG_PATH=configs/example-math-orchestration.toml AURA_CUSTOM_EVENTS=true cargo run --bin aura -- webserver

# Build and run CLI (HTTP mode — connects to a running `aura webserver`)
cargo run -p aura-cli -- --api-url http://localhost:8080

# Build and run CLI (standalone mode — no server needed, default when --api-url absent)
cargo run -p aura-cli -- --config configs/my-agent.toml

# Run integration tests (local, requires Docker)
make test-integration-local                        # base integration
make test-integration-orchestration-local          # orchestration integration
make test-integration-sre-orchestration-local      # SRE orchestration integration
