Expand description
The language, rendered for a coding assistant: aura docs --agent.
An assistant asked to write a manifest in a language it has not memorised will guess, and guesses come out looking like YAML or Python. Aura is small enough that the alternative is practical — the whole language fits in a few thousand tokens, which is not true of the larger configuration languages.
Everything here is assembled from what already exists: the keyword list the
lexer reserves, the stdlib manifest the language server builds completion
from, and the diagnostic catalogue a test keeps in step with the compiler. The
prose that cannot be derived — the : against = distinction, the capability
model, the mistakes people actually make — lives in agent-preamble.md.
Assembling rather than writing is the whole point. A hand-maintained copy of the method list would be a second source of truth, and this repository has spent enough time discovering what those turn into.
