Hey! The weakest part of Claude Code I think is that it's closed source and locked to Claude models only. If you are looking for inspiration, Roo is the the best tool atm. It offers far more interesting capabilities. Just to name some - user defines modes, the built in debug mode is great for debugging, architecture mode. You can, for example, ask it to summarize some part of the running task and start a new task with fresh context. And, unlike in Claude Code, in Roo the LLM will actually follow your custom instructions (seriously, guys, that Claude.md is absolutely useless)! The only drawback of Roo, in my opinion, is that it is NOT a cli.
I dunno what you would consider non trivial. I am building a diffing plugin for neovim. The experience is.. mixed. The fast progression at the start was impressive, but now as the code base have grown the issues show up. The code is a mess. Adding one feature breaks another and so on.
I have no problem in using the agent on code that I know very well, because I can stir it in the exact direction I want. But vibe coding something I don't fully understand is a pain.
Hi! Looks like a very interesting tool, as a stubborn cli-only user, I was pleased that there is cli version of this alongside the GUI verison. However, trying to look into the documentation of the cli has left me with a 404 page.

They should write a typescript-to-go transpiler (in typescript) , so that they can write their compiler in typescript and use typescript to transpile it to go.
> I'm excited to understand more about how aider creates a map of the repository and effectively compresses the information in ways similar to how I keep track of high level ideas.
I do not disagree with your point, except, given the current state of US, it is hard to describe it as not repressive. I understand it's a spectrum. I checked on Wikipedia - abortion is legal in China. That's one right that many US women don't have. Which does not mean that China is a free country, but just to gain some perspective. The notion of some place being a dictatorship was many times weaponized to launch invasions and economic sanctions that left that place broken and impoverished.
It seems like you could use aider in architecture mode. Basically, it will suggest the solution to your problem fist, and prompt you to start editing, you can say no to refine the solution and only start editing when you are satisfied with it.
