Built For Professionals

One platform replaces four: remote IDE, fleet console, security stack, and multi-agent AI builder.

Firmware & Embedded Devs

SSH, SFTP, serial console, and power profiling for Raspberry Pi, Jetson, ESP32, BeagleBone, and microcontrollers — with AI agents wired in for code review and test-fix loops.

DevOps & Fleet Ops

Manage hundreds of devices from one dashboard: OTA staged rollouts, patch management, config drift, backups, Prometheus metrics, Docker/Kubernetes, and AD/LDAP.

Industrial / OT / SCADA

Modbus, OPC-UA, Siemens S7, PROFINET, EtherCAT, BACnet, EtherNet/IP, and CAN-bus support through pluggable drivers. Visual protocol translator wires the lanes together on the canvas.

Eight Capability Domains. One App.

AidaIDE v5.6 unifies remote development, fleet operations, enterprise security, and multi-agent AI in a single desktop + web platform.

SSH Engine & Remote Access

Paramiko-based SSH/SFTP with legacy-device fallback, session multiplexing, jump hosts, cloud tunneling for NAT-hidden devices, ANSI terminal with 10k scrollback, VNC/RDP remote desktop, serial console with live plotter, and mDNS auto-discovery.

Legacy SSH SFTP Jump hosts Cloud tunneling VNC / RDP Serial plotter

Networking & Industrial Protocols

Network topology discovery with ARP sweep and traceroute. Protocol Analyzer for MQTT, Modbus, OPC-UA, and HTTP. Visual Protocol Translator bridges Modbus, MQTT, REST, S7, and OPC-UA in real time. Industrial protocol support spans PROFINET, EtherCAT, BACnet, EtherNet/IP, CAN-bus, plus natural-language device control.

Plugins & Extensibility

Unified plugin architecture with JSON manifest, dependency resolution, version constraints, and lifecycle hooks. Auto-discovery, enable/disable state, minimum-version checks, and custom UI contributions. Ships with an advanced JS/Node.js linter plugin as a reference.

Plugin API Hooks Custom panels JS linter included

Workflow Automation

Workflow Template Manager with one-click preset patterns. Workflow Runner executes multi-step pipelines with configurable inputs, error handling, per-step timeouts, continue-on-error, and retry-with-feedback. The Agent Workflow Studio bridges workflows into the AI Agent Hierarchy.

Pipelines Retry logic Workflow Studio

Flagship Capability

The AI Agent Hierarchy

A visual, circuit-board-inspired system for composing, debugging, and deploying multi-agent AI workflows at scale. Four tiers of abstraction so a single engineer can design, ship, and supervise whole teams of AI agents as if they were circuits on a board.

Four-Tier Abstraction Ladder

Zoom out to see the system; zoom in to see the wiring.

TEAM
Organizational pipeline

A coordinated set of SoCs representing a full product line or org function.

SoC
System-on-Chip — end-to-end workflow

Composed of multiple ICs arranged as stages (Intake → Process → Deliver).

IC
Integrated Circuit — specialized skill

A focused 2–10 agent circuit that owns one responsibility, like "Code Review Pipeline".

MODULE
Flow-control primitive

Splitters, mergers, routers, validators, human-in-the-loop gates — the wiring between agents.

AGENT
Single LLM-backed role

A configured persona (Junior Reviewer, Test Runner, etc.) with its own prompt, model, and tools.

Three Builders — One for Each Scale

Match the builder to the level of abstraction you’re working at.

IC Builder

Build a Skill

Design and refine focused agent circuits that own one responsibility.

  • 2–10 agent sub-networks, no org overhead
  • Drag-and-drop placement with auto-layout
  • Define input/output ports
  • Sequential, parallel, or feedback wiring
  • Auto-detect entry & exit agents
  • Save as reusable Chip Library module
  • Instant preview and test with sample data
  • ICs can nest inside other ICs
Used by developers & team leads building specialized skills.
SoC Builder

Design a Workflow

Compose ICs into a complete, deployable end-to-end workflow.

  • Arrange ICs as stages (Intake → Process → Deliver)
  • SoC-level I/O ports for external data
  • Explicit data-flow edges between ICs
  • Automatic region detection & auto-collapse
  • Fan-in / fan-out sync across groups
  • Click-to-drill hierarchical zoom
  • Includes "Software Factory" example SoC
  • Deploys as one executable unit
Used by product managers & architects designing workflows.
Team Builder

Orchestrate Teams

Orchestrate multiple pre-configured teams (SoCs) across an organization.

  • Load & manage multiple team hierarchies at once
  • Compose teams into larger org pipelines
  • Team-to-team interfaces & boundaries
  • Visualize org flow from teams down to agents
  • Save/load org structures as templates
  • Multi-team sync & approval gates
  • Budget, SLA, and resource constraints per team
  • Integrate external teams via standard protocols
Used by org architects, platform leads, principal engineers.

Portal + Panel — Configure, Then Execute

Agents are built in the Portal and run on-canvas in the Panel.

AI Agent Portal

Where an agent is configured before it hits the canvas.
  • Name, emoji, color, and role tag
  • System-prompt editor with persona templates (Supervisor, Worker, Analyst, Engineer, Mentor)
  • Model selector for every provider you have a key for
  • Tool multi-select — code exec, file I/O, search, shell, custom
  • Save-as-Template for reuse
  • Built-in test harness with streaming response
  • Library of preset agents ready to drop on canvas

AI Agent Panel

The on-canvas runtime surface for execution and observability.
  • Visual agent "chip" color-coded by role (Supervisor / Worker / Approver, etc.)
  • Left input port / right output port, click to send or copy
  • Status badge — Running / Idle / Error / Queued
  • Real-time streaming output in tooltip or side panel
  • Right-click properties — edit prompt, model, tools without leaving canvas
  • Miniature execution-history timeline per agent
  • Cost badge — tokens and $ per run when cost tracking is on
  • Color-coded wires: green = approved, yellow = pending, red = error

Ships With Pre-Built Agent Modules

Drop them on the canvas as-is, or clone and edit.

Code Review Pipeline

Test & Fix Loop

Tester → Reporter → Fixer
