Aider v0.79.0: Gemini 2.5, DeepSeek V3, Auto Context

TL;DR

• New /context command auto-identifies files to edit for your request
• Added Gemini 2.5 Pro and DeepSeek V3 0324 model support
• Claude 3.7 Sonnet gets "overeager" mode to stay on scope

New

• Gemini 2.5 Pro support — SOTA model now available as a backend option
• DeepSeek V3 0324 support — adds another open-weight model choice
• /context command — automatically identifies which files need editing for a given request, saving you manual context setup
• /edit alias — shorthand for /editor command
• "Overeager" mode for Claude 3.7 Sonnet — keeps the model working within requested scope instead of expanding edits
