# aha

**Lightweight AI Inference Engine — All-in-one Solution for Text, Vision, Speech, and OCR**

aha is a high-performance, cross-platform AI inference engine built with Rust and the Candle framework. It brings state-of-the-art AI models to your local machine—no API keys, no cloud dependencies, just pure, fast AI running directly on your hardware.

## Changelog

## Quick Start

### Installation

```bash
git clone https://github.com/jhqxxx/aha.git
cd aha
cargo build --release
```

**Optional Features:**

```bash
# CUDA (NVIDIA GPU acceleration)
cargo build --release --features cuda

# Metal (Apple GPU acceleration for macOS)
cargo build --release --features metal

# Flash Attention (faster inference)
cargo build --release --features cuda,flash-attn

# FFmpeg (multimedia processing)
cargo build --release --features ffmpeg
```

### CLI Quick Reference

```bash

# List all supported models
aha list

# Download model only
aha download -m qwen3asr-0.6b

# Download model and start service
aha -m qwen3asr-0.6b

# Run inference directly (without starting service)
aha run -m qwen3asr-0.6b -i "audio.wav"

# Start service only (model already downloaded)
aha serv -m qwen3asr-0.6b -p 10100

```

### Chat

```bash
aha serv -m qwen3-0.6b -p 10100
```

Then use the unified (OpenAI-compatible) API:

```bash
curl http://localhost:10100/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "qwen3-0.6b",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
    "stream": false
  }
'
```

## Why aha?
- **🚀 High-Performance Inference** - Powered by Candle framework for efficient tensor computation and model inference
- **🔧 Unified Interface** — One tool for text, vision, speech, and OCR
- **📦 Local-First** — All processing runs locally, no data leaves your machine
- **🎯 Cross-Platform** — Works on Linux, macOS, and Windows
- **⚡ GPU Accelerated** — Optional CUDA support for faster inference
- **🛡️ Memory Safe** — Built with Rust for reliability
- **🧠 Attention Optimization** - Optional Flash Attention support for optimized long sequence processing

## Development

### Using aha as a Library
> cargo add aha

```rust
# VoxCPM example
use aha::models::voxcpm::generate::VoxCPMGenerate;
use aha::utils::audio_utils::save_wav;
use anyhow::Result;

fn main() -> Result<()> {
    let model_path = "xxx/openbmb/VoxCPM-0.5B/";

    let mut voxcpm_generate = VoxCPMGenerate::init(model_path, None, None)?;

    let generate = voxcpm_generate.generate(
        "The sun is shining bright, flowers smile at me, birds say early early early".to_string(),
        None,
        None,
        2,
        100,
        10,
        2.0,
        false,
        6.0,
    )?;

    let _ = save_wav(&generate, "voxcpm.wav")?;
    Ok(())
}
```

### Extending New Models

- Create new model file in src/models/
- Export in src/models/mod.rs
- Add support for CLI model inference in src/exec/
- Add tests and examples in tests/

## Features

- High-performance inference via Candle framework
- Multi-modal model support (vision, language, speech)
- Clean, easy-to-use API design
- Minimal dependencies, compact binaries
- Flash Attention support for long sequences
- FFmpeg support for multimedia processing
