Description

This MCP server connects MCP clients (like Claude Desktop or Cursor IDE) to Aider, exposing tools to edit and create files, extract code blocks, and inspect git and Aider configuration. It runs over stdio by default and supports repository-scoped operations, Aider config/.env layering, and optional automatic commits. The server is intended to streamline programmatic code edits and repository interactions for AI agents, leveraging Aider's editing capabilities and existing API keys for language models.
