The problems you face today

Need to control whether AI edits are auto-applied or reviewed
Use Aider's /architect to propose and your choice of /ask or /code to apply; you control when changes are edited and committed.
Complex changes get lost in chat history
Persistent terminal sessions with SQLite recording
Manual file selection for large refactors
Automated file discovery for Aider context

How it works

1

Generate implementation plan for your task

2

Launch Aider with relevant files auto-selected

3

Guide Aider with structured plan steps

4

Execute with voice commands and session recording

Key capabilities

Plan-guided Aider sessions (architect + editor workflow)
Automated file context selection via repo map
Voice-to-code (/voice) for spoken instructions
Session save/export (/save) and shareable transcripts β€” not a hosted continuous cloud recording

Technical implementation

Intelligent File Discovery

Hierarchical folder selection, pattern filtering, and AI relevance assessment

  • Root folder selection based on task
  • Targeted regex pattern groups
  • LLM analyzes actual file contents
  • Automatic dependency detection
  • Files organized into XML for LLM consumption

Multi-Model Planning

Generate multiple implementation approaches using different AI models, then synthesize the best solution

  • OpenAI GPT‑5 family (GPT‑5 and GPT‑5 Thinking/Pro), historical o‑series (e.g., o3 variants); Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4 and Opus 4.1; Google Gemini 2.5 Pro β€” availability and features vary by plan and endpoint (ChatGPT vs API).
  • AI architect merges best insights
  • Your guidance shapes the merge

Use official vendor docs to confirm features like streaming, function calling, and background mode for each model.
