I built ARIA (Autonomous Reasoning intelligent agent) for hard code developers – an open-source CLI coding agent with AST validation and RAG web search

## What is ARIA?

ARIA (Autonomous Reasoning and Intelligent Agent) is a free, open-source CLI
coding agent that works with any Ollama model — local or cloud.

## What makes it different?

AST Pre-Validation — catches Python errors before running code. Deterministic layer, no hallucination possible here.

RAG + Web Search — when stuck on an error, searches real Stack Overflow and

Loop Detection + Pivot — if the same error repeats 3 times, ARIA automatically abandons the approach and tries something completely different.

Plan → Approve → Execute — never touches your files without showing you the plan first and getting your approval.

Project Memory — remembers your stack decisions and context across sessions.

Live Status Bar — always shows what ARIA is doing in real time.

## Install

pip install aria-x

## Run

aria --model nemotron-3-super:cloud

Built over one session. Feedback welcome!
