Terminal agent

Curated pick

Aider

Open-source terminal pair programmer that maps the repo and commits diffs.

About this tool

Aider is a git-native CLI agent: it maps the codebase, edits files, and writes reviewable commits. Design engineers who think in diffs use it without switching to an AI IDE.

Bring your own model key. It is quieter than Claude Code or Codex, and a fit when you want pair-programming in the terminal rather than a new editor.
