+ description: Tell aider to follow your coding conventions when it works on your code.
5
+ ---
6
+ # Specifying coding conventions
7
+
8
+ Sometimes you want GPT to be aware of certain coding guidelines,
9
+ like whether to provide type hints, which libraries or packages
10
+ to prefer, etc.
11
+
12
+ The easiest way to do that with aider is to simply create
13
+ a small markdown file and include it in the chat.
14
+
15
+ For example, say we want our python code to:
16
+
17
+ ```
18
+ - Prefer httpx over requests for making http requests.
19
+ - Use types everywhere possible.
20
+ ```
21
+
22
+ We would simply create a file like `CONVENTIONS.md` with those lines
23
+ and then we can add it to the aider chat, along with the file(s)
24
+ that we want to edit.
25
+
26
+ It's best to load the conventions file with `/read CONVENTIONS.md`
27
+ or `aider --read CONVENTIONS.md`.
28
+ This way it is marked as read-only, and cached if prompt caching
29
+ is enabled.
30
+
31
+ ## Community contributed conventions
32
+
33
+ You can check the [aider conventions repository](https://github.com/Aider-AI/conventions)
34
+ to find or contribute conventions files.
35
+
36
+ ## Always load conventions
37
+
38
+ You can also configure aider to always load your conventions file
39
+ in the [`.aider.conf.yml` config file](https://aider.chat/docs/config/aider_conf.html):
40
+
41
+
42
+ ```yaml
43
+ # alone
44
+ read: CONVENTIONS.md
45
+
46
+ # multiple files
47
+ read: [CONVENTIONS.md, anotherfile.txt]
48
+ ```
49
+
50
+
51
+ ## Example
52
+
53
+ See below for an example of how the conventions can affect the code
54
+ that aider writes.
55
+
56
+ <div class="chat-transcript" markdown="1">
57
+ > $ aider --read CONVENTIONS.md useragent.py
58
+ >
59
+ > Aider v0.24.2-dev
60
+ > Added CONVENTIONS.md to the chat.
61
+ > Added useragent.py to the chat.
62
+
63
+ #### write a function that uses httpbin to check the user agent on the request. return the ua.
64
+
65
+ To fulfill your request, I will:
66
+
67
+ 1. Add an import for `httpx`.
68
+ 2. Write a function named `check_user_agent` that makes a GET request to `httpbin.org/user-agent` and returns the user agent string.
69
+
70
+ Here is the diff for the `useragent.py` file:
71
+
72
+ ```diff
73
+ --- useragent.py
74
+ +++ useragent.py
75
+ @@ ... @@
76
+ +import httpx
77
+ +
78
+ +def check_user_agent() -> str:
79
+ + response = httpx.get('https://httpbin.org/user-agent')
80
+ + return response.json()['user-agent']
81
+ ```
82
+

35
+ ## Working with an LLM web chat
36
+
37
+ [Aider can connect to most LLMs via API](https://aider.chat/docs/llms.html) and works best that way.
38
+ But there are times when you may want to work with an LLM via its web chat interface:
39
+
40
+ - Workplace policies may limit your LLM usage to a proprietary web chat system.
41
+ - The web chat LLM may have access to unique context or may have been specially fine tuned for your task.
42
+ - It may be cost prohibitive to use some models via API.
43
+ - There may not be an API available.
44
+
45
+ Aider has features for working with an LLM via its web chat interface.
46
+ This allows you to use the web chat LLM as the "big brain code architect"
47
+ while running aider with a smaller, cheaper LLM to actually make changes
48
+ to your local files.
49
+
50
+ For this "file editor" part of the process
51
+ you can run aider with many open source, free or very inexpensive LLMs.
52
+ For example, the demo video above shows aider using DeepSeek to apply the changes
53
+ that o1-preview is suggesting in the web chat.
54
+
55
+ ### Copy aider's code context to your clipboard, paste into the web UI
56
+
57
+ The `/copy-context <instructions>` command can be used in chat to copy aider's code context to your clipboard.
58
+ It will include:
59
+
60
+ - All the files which have been added to the chat via `/add`.
61
+ - Any read only files which have been added via `/read`.
62
+ - Aider's [repository map](https://aider.chat/docs/repomap.html) that brings in code context related to the above files from elsewhere in your git repo.
63
+ - Some instructions to the LLM that ask it to output change instructions concisely.
64
+ - If you include `<instructions>`, they will be copied too.
65
+
66
+ You can paste the context into your browser, and start interacting with the LLM web chat to
67
+ ask for code changes.
68
+
69
+ ### Paste the LLM's reply back into aider to edit your files
70
+
71
+ Once the LLM has replied, you can use the "copy response" button in the web UI to copy
72
+ the LLM's response.
73
+ Back in aider, you can run `/paste` and aider will edit your files
74
+ to implement the changes suggested by the LLM.
75
+
76
+ You can use a cheap, efficient model like GPT-4o Mini, DeepSeek or Qwen to do these edits.
77
+ This works best if you run aider with `--edit-format editor-diff` or `--edit-format editor-whole`.
78
+
79
+ ### Copy/paste mode
80
+
81
+ Aider has a `--copy-paste` mode that streamlines this entire process:
82
+
83
+ - Whenever you `/add` or `/read` files, aider will automatically copy the entire, updated
84
+ code context to your clipboard.
85
+ You'll see "Copied code context to clipboard" whenever this happens.
86
+ - When you copy the LLM reply to your clipboard outside aider, aider will automatically notice
87
+ and load it into the aider chat.
88
+ Just press ENTER to send the message
89
+ and aider will apply the LLMs changes to your local files.
90
+ - Aider will automatically select the best edit format for this copy/paste functionality.
91
+ Depending on the LLM you have aider use, it will be either `editor-whole` or `editor-diff`.
92
+
93
+ ## Terms of service
94
+
95
+ Be sure to review the Terms Of Service of any LLM web chat service you use with
96
+ these features.
97
+ These features are not intended to be used in violation of any service's Terms Of Service (TOS).
98
+
99
+ Aider's web chat features have been designed to be compliant with the
100
+ terms of service of most LLM web chats.
101
+
102
+ There are 4 copy/paste steps involved when coding with an LLM web chat:
103
+
104
+ 1. Copy code and context from aider.
105
+ 2. Paste the code and context into the LLM web chat.
106
+ 3. Copy the reply from the LLM web chat.
107
+ 4. Paste the LLM reply into aider.
108
+
109
+ Most LLM web chat TOS prohibit automating steps (2) and (3) where code
110
+ is copied from and pasted into the web chat.
111
+ Aider's `--copy-paste` mode leaves those as 100% manual steps for the user to complete.
112
+ It simply streamlines steps (1) and (4) that are interactions with aider,
113
+ and which should not be under the scope of an LLM web chat TOS.
114
+
115
+ If you are concerned that
116
+ the automatic interactions with aider in steps (1) and (4) may be problematic with respect to
117
+ your LLM web chat provider's TOS, you can forego `--copy-paste` mode.
118
+ Instead, manually use the `/copy-context` and `/paste` commands if that
119
+ will keep you in compliance.
120
+
121
+ Again, do not use these features in violation of any service's Terms Of Service.

+ # Images & web pages
8
+
9
+ You can add images and URLs to the aider chat.
10
+
11
+ ## Images
12
+
13
+ Aider supports working with image files for many vision-capable models
14
+ like GPT-4o and Claude 3.7 Sonnet.
15
+ Adding images to a chat can be helpful in many situations:
16
+
17
+ - Add screenshots of web pages or UIs that you want aider to build or modify.
18
+ - Show aider a mockup of a UI you want to build.
19
+ - Screenshot an error message that is otherwise hard to copy & paste as text.
20
+ - Etc.
21
+
22
+ You can add images to the chat just like you would
23
+ add any other file:
24
+
25
+ - Use `/add <image-filename>` from within the chat
26
+ - Use `/paste` to paste an image from your clipboard into the chat.
27
+ - Launch aider with image filenames on the command line: `aider <image-filename>` along with any other command line arguments you need.
28
+
29
+ ## Web pages
30
+
31
+ Aider can scrape the text from URLs and add it to the chat.
32
+ This can be helpful to:
33
+
34
+ - Include documentation pages for less popular APIs.
35
+ - Include the latest docs for libraries or packages that are newer than the model's training cutoff date.
36
+ - Etc.
37
+
38
+ To add URLs to the chat:
39
+
40
+ - Use `/web <url>`
41
+ - Just paste the URL into the chat and aider will ask if you want to add it.
42
+
43
+ You can also scrape web pages from the command line to see the markdown version that aider produces:

5

6
+
7
+ # Linting and testing
8
+
9
+ Aider can automatically lint and test your code
10
+ every time it makes changes.
11
+ This helps identify and repair any problems introduced
12
+ by the AI edits.
13
+
14
+ ## Linting
15
+
16
+ Aider comes with built in linters for
17
+ [most popular languages](/docs/languages.html)
18
+ and will automatically lint code in these languages.
19
+
20
+ Or you can specify your favorite linter
21
+ with the `--lint-cmd <cmd>` switch.
22
+ The lint command should accept the filenames
23
+ of the files to lint.
24
+ If there are linting errors, aider expects the
25
+ command to print them on stdout/stderr
26
+ and return a non-zero exit code.
27
+ This is how most linters normally operate.
28
+
29
+ By default, aider will lint any files which it edits.
30
+ You can disable this with the `--no-auto-lint` switch.
31
+
32
+ ### Per-language linters
33
+
34
+ To specify different linters based on the code language, use `--lint "language: cmd"`.
35
+
36
+ ### Code formatting "linters"
37
+
38
+ Many people use code formatters as linters, to format and pretty their code.
39
+ These tools sometimes return non-zero exit codes if they make changes, which will
40
+ confuse aider into thinking there's an actual lint error that needs to be fixed.
41
+
42
+ You can use formatters by wrapping them in a shell script like this and setting
43
+ the script as your linter.
44
+
45
+ ```bash
46
+ #!/bin/bash
47
+
48
+ # Run it twice.
49
+ #
50
+ # First attempt may reformat/modify files, and therefore exit with non-zero status.
51
+ #
52
+ # Second attempt will not do anything and exit 0 unless there's a real problem beyond
53
+ # the code formatting that was completed.
54
+
55
+ pre-commit run --files "$@" >/dev/null \
56
+ || pre-commit run --files "$@"
57
+ ```
58
+
59
+ ## Testing
60
+
61
+ You can run tests with `/test <test-command>`.
62
+ Aider will run the test command without any arguments.
63
+ If there are test errors, aider expects the
64
+ command to print them on stdout/stderr
65
+ and return a non-zero exit code.
66
+
67
+ Aider will try and fix any errors
68
+ if the command returns a non-zero exit code.
69
+
70
+ You can configure aider to run your test suite
71
+ after each time the AI edits your code
72
+ using the `--test-cmd <test-command>` and
73
+ `--auto-test` switch.
74
+
75
+
76
+
77
+ ## Compiled languages
78
+
79
+ If you want to have aider compile code after each edit, you
80
+ can use the lint and test commands to achieve this.
81
+
82
+ - You might want to recompile each file which was modified
83
+ to check for compile errors.
84
+ To do this,
85
+ provide a `--lint-cmd` which both lints and compiles the file.
86
+ You could create a small shell script for this.
87
+ - You might want to rebuild the entire project after files
88
+ are edited to check for build errors.
89
+ To do this,
90
+ provide a `--test-cmd` which both builds and tests the project.
91
+ You could create a small shell script for this.
92
+ Or you may be able to do something as simple as
93
+ `--test-cmd "dotnet build && dotnet test"`.
94
+
95
+ ## Manually running code
96
+
97
+ You can use the `/run` command in the chat to run your code
98
+ and optionally share the output with aider.
99
+ This can be useful to share error messages or to show aider
100
+ the code's output before asking for changes or corrections.

4
+ description: Using the code, architect, ask and help chat modes.
5
+ ---
6
+
7
+ # Chat modes
8
+
9
+ Aider has a few different chat modes:
10
+
11
+ - `code` - Aider will make changes to your code to satisfy your requests.
12
+ - `ask` - Aider will discuss your code and answer questions about it, but never make changes.
13
+ - `architect` - Like code mode, aider will change your files. An architect model will propose changes and an editor model will translate that proposal into specific file edits.
14
+ - `help` - Aider will answer questions about aider: usage, configuration, troubleshooting, etc.
15
+
16
+ By default, aider starts in "code" mode. As you are talking, you can
17
+ send individual messages in a specific mode using
18
+ `/code`, `/architect`, `/ask`, and `/help` commands:
19
+ Using these `/`-commands applies just to that particular message.
20
+ Your next message will go back to the active mode (usually "code" mode by default).
21
+
22
+ You can switch the active mode in a sticky way
23
+ with the `/chat-mode <mode>` command:
24
+
25
+ ```
26
+ /chat-mode code
27
+ /chat-mode architect
28
+ /chat-mode ask
29
+ /chat-mode help
30
+ ```
31
+
32
+ Or you can switch between coding modes using these commands without arguments:
33
+
34
+ ```
35
+ /code
36
+ /architect
37
+ /ask
38
+ ```
39
+
40
+ Or you can launch aider in one of the modes with the `--chat-mode <mode>` switch.
41
+ There is also a special shortcut `--architect` to launch in `--chat-mode architect`.
42
+
43
+ The aider prompt will indicate the active mode:
44
+
45
+ ```
46
+ > This is code mode.
47
+ ask> This is ask mode.
48
+ architect> This is architect mode.
49
+ ```
50
+
51
+
52
+ ## Ask/code workflow
53
+
54
+ A recommended workflow is to bounce back and forth between `/ask` and `/code` modes.
55
+
56
+ Use ask mode to discuss what you want to do, get suggestions or options from aider
57
+ and provide feedback on the approach.
58
+ Once aider understands the mission, switch to code mode to have it start editing
59
+ your files.
60
+ All the conversation and decision making from ask mode will
61
+ help ensure that the correct code changes are performed.
62
+
63
+ You can be very terse when you finally switch from ask to code mode.
64
+ Saying something as simple as "go ahead" in code mode will
65
+ have aider execute on the plan you've been discussing.
66
+
67
+ Here's an example with two ask mode messages to agree on the plan,
68
+ followed by two terse code mode messages to edit the code.

+

105
+
106
+ ````
107
+
108
+ You can think of this ask/code workflow as a more fluid version of
109
+ architect mode, but working just with one model the whole time.
110
+
111
+ ## Architect mode and the editor model
112
+
113
+ When you are in architect mode, aider sends your requests to two models:
114
+
115
+ 1. First, it sends your request to the main model which will act as an architect
116
+ to propose how to solve your coding request.
117
+ The main model is configured with `/model` or `--model`.
118
+
119
+ 2. Aider then sends another request to an "editor model",
120
+ asking it to turn the architect's proposal into specific file editing instructions.
121
+ Aider has built in defaults to select an editor model based on your main model.
122
+ Or, you can choose a specific editor model with `--editor-model <model>`.
123
+
124
+ Certain LLMs aren't able to propose coding solutions *and*
125
+ specify detailed file edits all in one go.
126
+ For these models, architect mode can produce better results than code mode
127
+ by pairing them
128
+ with an editor model that is responsible for generating the file editing instructions.
129
+ But this uses two LLM requests,
130
+ which can take longer and increase costs.
131
+
132
+ Architect mode is especially useful with OpenAI's o1 models, which are strong at
133
+ reasoning but less capable at editing files.
134
+ Pairing an o1 architect with an editor model like GPT-4o or Sonnet will
135
+ give the best results.
136
+
137
+ But architect mode can also be helpful when you use the same model
138
+ as both the architect and the editor.
139
+ Allowing the model two requests to solve the problem and edit the files
140
+ can sometimes provide better results.
141
+
142
+ The editor model uses one of aider's edit formats to let the LLM
143
+ edit source files.
144
+ Aider will pick a suitable edit format by default,
145
+ but you can customize it with `--editor-edit-format <format>`.
146
+ The
147
+ ["editor-diff" and "editor-whole" edit formats](/docs/more/edit-formats.html#editor-diff-and-editor-whole)
148
+ are the recommended edit formats when using architect mode.
149
+ See this article on
150
+ [aider's architect/editor mode](/2024/09/26/architect.html)
151
+ for more details.

+ #### /architect Can we make this simpler?
192
+
193
+ Yes, you could replace the `factorial()` function with a call to the `math.factorial()`
194
+ builtin.
195
+ This way you don't have to maintain a custom factorial implementation,
196
+ and the builtin function is well optimized.

201

202
+ return 1
203

204
+ return n * factorial(n - 1)
