"gemini 2.5 pro exp" is superior to Claude Sonnet 3.7 when I use it with Aider [1]. And it is free (with some high limit). [1]https://aider.chat/ https://aider

  Don't they train on your inputs if you use the free Ai studio api key?

    speaking for myself, I am happy to make that trade. As long as I get unrestricted access to latest one. Heck, most of my code now is written by gemini anyway haha.

  Compared to cline aider had no chance, the last time I tried it (4 month ago). Has it really changed? Always thought cline is superior because it focuses on sonnet with all its bells an whistles. While aider tries to be an universal ide coding agent which works well with all models. When I try gemmini 2.5 pro exp with cline it does very well but often fails to use the tools provided by cline which makes it way less expensive while failing random basic tasks sonnet does in its sleep. I pay the extra to save the time. Do not get me wrong. Maybe I am totally outdated with my opinion. It is hard to keep up these days.

    It has multiple edit modes, you have to pair them up properly

    I tried Cline, but I work faster using the command line style of Aider. Having the /run command to execute a script and having the console content added to the prompt, makes fixing bugs very fast.

  I would use Aider if it had an agent mode. It needs to catch up with UX, frankly just have a mode that copies what claude code does.
