Show HN: Asto – AST-based code editing for AI agents

Large changes, fewer errors, predictable flow for agents.

asto enables agents to perform structural code changes quickly and predictably, with dry-runs, auditable diffs, and structured output for automation.

It is built for AI-agent workflows where text patches are expensive and fragile. Instead of rewriting large code blocks, the agent declares intent on AST structure and lets asto execute the edit.
