README
arnes
An agent harness for the terminal, in the style of Claude Code, written in Rust with a blue and tatara-lisp configuration and scripting layer.
It talks to the Anthropic API or to any compatible endpoint, runs tools and MCP servers, keeps conversations in a local store, and renders a TUI. Routes (a primary model plus fallbacks), profiles, hooks and scheduled checks are declared in one config file.
