thesa is a Rust CLI to archive GitHub repositories, ML models from Hugging Face, Ollama, and CivitAI, and websites.

It supports direct command-line targets and an interactive Scrin TUI. TTY clone runs use a Scrin dashboard, while Aisling renders Matrix/Burn/Wipe effect panes and TQDM-style loader rows for concurrent pulls.
