AIDE Local Daemon

The daemon is the native boundary for the future desktop shell. It owns no model weights and has no remote fallback.

Current Endpoints

GET /health: local health and workspace path
GET /api/workspace: bounded top-level workspace listing
GET /api/git/status: read-only Git status

It binds to 127.0.0.1 only. It does not expose arbitrary shell execution, arbitrary file reads, network access, credentials, or write operations. Those capabilities require separate permission-gated APIs and tests.

Run

AIDE_WORKSPACE=/path/to/project node daemon/server.mjs

The default port is 4777; override it with AIDE_DAEMON_PORT.
