Aider

Aider Python Module

Aider exposes a Python module entrypoint (`python -m aider`) and an importable package (`aider.main.main`) so Aider can be embedded in Python scripts, CI workflows, and other agents. The same flags and configuration that drive the CLI apply to module invocation. There is no documented stable Python SDK contract beyond `main()` — the internal `Coder`, `Model`, `IO`, and `Commands` classes are public but versioned with the CLI and may change between releases.
