Harness for AI coding agents working in any Ruby project. Ships a language-agnostic tool contract (RunCommand, ReadLog, QueryDatabase, ReadModel, SchemaGraph, RunTests) with structured returns, read-only DB enforcement, environment permissions, and audit logging. The Rails edition (ask-rails-harness) adds framework-native tools on top.

Exposes the ask-ruby-harness tools (QueryDatabase, ReadModel, ReadLog, RunCommand, SchemaGraph, RunTests) as MCP tools for any Ruby project. Coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client can connect to query the database, inspect models, read logs, run commands, and run tests with structured results.

Isolated code execution via Local (subprocess + rlimits), Docker (containers), Daytona (remote sandboxes), and Cloudflare (Workers sandbox). Zero external runtime dependencies.

A compact Ruby DSL for building standards-oriented JSON Schema documents. Zero dependencies.

Error context for agents via Sentry for the ask-rb ecosystem.

Discovers, validates, and formats agent skills from project directories, user config, and installed gems. Ships built-in skills (codebase exploration, debugging methodology). Each skill is a markdown file with step-by-step instructions that the agent loads on demand.

Provides authenticated Slack client helper, context metadata, and error guide for AI agents.

Error context for agents via SolidErrors for the ask-rb ecosystem.

Provides Ask::State adapter implementations for SQLite, Redis, PostgreSQL, and MySQL. Each backend implements the Ask::State::Adapter contract (get/set/delete, distributed locking, message queues, and ordered lists) so agents, sessions, and workflows pick the right persistence layer with one line of code.

Defines Ask::Tool (base class), tool discovery, and the Ask::Result returned by tools.

Bash, Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, and Code tools for the ask-rb ecosystem.

Fetches a URL and converts its content to clean markdown for LLM consumption. A pluggable backend chain: pure Ruby httpx + Nokogiri + reverse_markdown by default, a Jina Reader fallback for JS-rendered or blocked pages, and a real-Chrome fallback (Ferrum) that renders JavaScript and lets auto-solving Cloudflare challenges complete. The capability layer only — tool framing (MCP servers, agent tools) is provided by the consumers.

A minimal MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes ask_web_fetch as a callable tool over stdio. Designed for use with clients that support MCP (ZCode, Claude Code, etc.), it fetches a URL and returns clean markdown through the ask-web-fetch backend chain — fast pure-Ruby httpx fetch first, a real Chrome (launched or CDP-attached) for JS-rendered and challenge-gated pages, with Jina Reader and self-hosted Crawl4AI in between. Terminal failures (parked domains, empty pages, dead 4xx) surface as their deterministic error class, so clients never retry the unretryable. The tool shell (name, schema, call) lives here, wrapping the Ask::WebFetch library.

Searches the web via a local SearXNG instance and returns the results as clean numbered markdown. The capability layer (WebSearch.search); the native Ask::Tools::WebSearch agent tool is an optional integration that registers when ask-tools is present. Configure endpoint via SEARXNG_URL env var.

A minimal MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes ask_web_search as a callable tool over stdio. Designed for use with clients that support MCP (ZCode, Claude Code, etc.), it queries a local SearXNG instance and returns formatted search results suitable for LLM consumption. The tool shell (name, schema, call) lives here, wrapping the Ask::WebSearch library.

Aspecto SDK and OpenTelemetry distribution for ruby programming language

This gem provides a Ruby interface for working withthe Talis Aspire API.

Aspose.Barcode for Cloud is a REST API for barcode generation and recognition. It helps you generate barcode images from scratch in linear (1D), two dimensional (2D), and postal formats. Generate barcode images in a variety of image formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, TIFF and many others. Recognize barcodes from different image types. Aspose.Barcode for Cloud allows you to control all aspects of the image and barcode when generating barcode images. Specify image width, height, border style, output image format and more. You can also set barcode attributes like font style, font color, background color, barcode type and the barcode text location.

This SDK allows to work with Aspose.CAD Cloud REST API in your Ruby applications quickly and easily, with zero initial cost and perform various conversion and update operations on AutoCAD DWG, DXF, DWF, DWFX, DWT, STL, IGS, DGN, OBJ and CF2 files and export them into different raster and vector formats like BMP, PSD, JPEG, TIFF, GIF, PNG, JPEG2000, SVG, WMF, PDF

Aspose.OCR for Cloud is a cloud-based REST API for optical character recognition and document scanning. It allows you to scan documents and recognize characters. Recognize text in English and other languages, and recognize text in only part of an image. Aspose.OCR for Cloud supports a variety of fonts in different styles, like regular, bold, and italic, and different image formats. You can use Aspose.OCR for Cloud in many scenarios, for example, extracting text and saving to a database.
