Aider is my Goldilocks zone. Autocomplete with HTTP round trips and fast models may be acceptable by 2030. I want to examine and learn each line of code, not let an Agent run loose and generate large diffs full of bad habits. I can leave comments like `# cache this and similar places ai!` in my IDE and Aider updates them all. Are there other agents which act upon comments and run from cli?

The blogger links to their own content from their own blog and throws a 500 level error (e.g. "Don't retry this.) with the message "Your access to this site has been limited by the site owner"

KTHXBAI.

Aider has some weird anti-features like an explicit inability to handle git submodules.

Now I dislike submodules, but I can’t get a massive codebase refactored just because of my tooling preferences.
