Aider is a CLI coding agent that maps your repo, edits files, and commits. Bring your own model keys (Claude, GPT, local). Favorite of builders who live in the terminal.
Our take
- Vibe coding: Open-source, git-native, BYO models. Maximum control when SaaS editors feel heavy.
- Coding agents: CLI agent with repo maps and auto-commits. The open-source reference for terminal-first agents.
