Excerpt

ARIS Infrastructure Setup

Quick Start (One Command)

bash skills/aris-infra/setup.sh

This interactive script will: check prerequisites → install dependencies → register skills → configure MCP reviewer server.

Manual Setup (if you prefer)

Overview

ARIS uses cross-model adversarial review — Claude Code executes research tasks while an external LLM (GPT-5.4, Gemini, or others) provides critical review. This avoids the "self-play blind spot" where a single model reviewing its own work produces predictable feedback.

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+
Claude Code CLI
At least one external LLM API key (OpenAI, Google Gemini, or MiniMax)

Step 1: Register MCP Servers

ARIS provides 5 MCP servers. Register the ones you need:
