Documentation

AURORA-NEURO is a family of computational neuro research platforms for pediatric neurosurgery — about 212 products across six domains, plus the tooling that runs the org.

Everything is Research Use Only and non-autonomous: it supports research and clinician decision-making, and never diagnoses, treats, or acts on a patient by itself. Start here, then dive into a domain or a specific product.

The shared design philosophy

Every platform follows the same house style. Understanding these five ideas explains almost any repo.

01 Non-autonomy as an invariant The RUO posture is encoded in the type system, not bolted on at the end. RUO & non-autonomy →
02 A governance chokepoint Every result passes the fail-closed guardEmission gate before it can be emitted. guardEmission →
03 Tamper-evident audit Governed actions are recorded in a hash-chained audit ledger. The audit ledger →
04 Honest provenance ADR-0001 forbids fabricated data; SYNTHETIC vs REAL is always labeled. Provenance & ADR-0001 →
05 A governance / numerics split A small TypeScript governance core sits in front of a Python numerics sidecar. The split →

Run any repo

Every repo installs and verifies the same way. The gates are the source of truth — a red CI badge is the org-wide Actions billing block, not a code failure.

gh repo clone aurora-neuro/<repo>
pip install -e ".[dev]"
ruff check . && mypy <package>
pytest -q
