Aura is an open-source artificial mind built to persist beyond the prompt—maintaining identity, memory, inner state, and self-directed cognition on your Mac.

A cognitive architecture that runs on your own machine. Internal state reaches generation through the model's activations, not the system prompt — and every consequential action leaves a receipt you can audit. Not an assistant.
