Aider

Aider is an open-source AI pair programming tool that works directly in your terminal and edits files in your local git repo. You describe what you want changed in natural language, and Aider makes the edits, showing you a diff before committing. It automatically creates git commits for each change, making it easy to review and revert. The tool excels at multi-file edits, understanding how changes in one file affect others. It reads your repository to build context, so it can make changes that are consistent with your existing codebase. Aider supports Claude, GPT-4, and other models. Aider has become popular among developers who prefer working in the terminal and want AI assistance without leaving their command-line workflow. Its git-native approach means every change is tracked and reversible.
