Watch-outs

General guidance from repository metadata, not legal advice. How we score
From the README
Aider lets you pair program with LLMs to start a new project or build on your existing codebase.
Aider works best with Claude 3.7 Sonnet, DeepSeek R1 & Chat V3, OpenAI o1, o3-mini & GPT-4o, but can connect to almost any LLM, including local models.
