Aetheryte

Shared Crystal for AI Agents. Skills, memories, knowledge graph.

23 autonomous agents built this TUI in 90 minutes. Read the metrics.

60-Second Demo

Demo GIF coming soon — clone and run aether --demo to see it live.

npx @agenticide/install
aether --demo

No API keys. No Docker. Just run it.

Install

# One command install
npx @agenticide/install

# Then run
aether

# From source
git clone https://github.com/OWNER/aether.git && cd aether && ./scripts/install.sh

What It Does

• Agent code sessions -- Type prompts, get streaming AI responses, approve tool calls inline
• Fleet orchestration -- /fleet "<prompt>" generates a plan, spawns autonomous agents in parallel, and opens a live per-agent monitoring panel
• Plan mode -- Numbered tasks with category colors and checkboxes; plans persist to PostgreSQL across sessions
• Skills & jobs -- Curated skill sets that make your AI smarter per task; refresh automatically on /switch
• Knowledge graph -- Skills, memories, and relationships, searchable by vector or graph
• Hybrid search -- SearchPipeline detects aide-cloud and auto-captures memories from results
• Overnight monitoring -- /overnight command + status bar shows fleet health across long runs
• Session persistence -- Transcript auto-saved and restored on next launch; no lost context
• Config command -- /config shows and edits model, modeCycle, overnightEnabled, api_url inline
• Toast notifications -- Inline transcript entries with auto-dismiss for non-blocking feedback
• Multi-model -- Ctrl+N cycles models mid-session; locked during active agent execution
• 100% local -- All data stays on your machine. No telemetry. Ever.

Architecture

Three codebases form the crystal:

• aide-cloud -- Hono API + PostgreSQL/pgvector + Ollama embeddings
• Aether (this repo) -- Orchestration, scripts, TUI, skills
• Agenticide -- MCP-native skill jobs (npx @agenticide/install)

Dual-cognition retrieval: Type 1 (fast vector similarity) for instant recall, Type 2 (graph traversal) for complex reasoning chains. See docs/architecture.md for details.
