Prudentia Aider Configuration

This skill provides an Aider configuration optimized for Python project development with Claude Sonnet 3.7, automatic commits, file watching, and comprehensive project context.

What This Does

Configures Aider to:

Configuration

```yaml

model: claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219

cache-prompts: true

cache-keepalive-pings: 2

stream: false

auto-commits: true

watch-files: true

read:

- Python.md

- README.md

- pyproject.toml

- llms-ctx.txt

- toolsepc-ctx.md

```

How to Use

1. **Create Configuration File**

- Save the configuration above as `.aider.conf.yml` in your project root

- Ensure the files listed in the `read` section exist in your project

2. **Required Context Files**

- `Python.md` - Python coding standards and conventions

- `README.md` - Project overview and setup instructions

- `pyproject.toml` - Python project dependencies and metadata

- `llms-ctx.txt` - LLM-specific context and guidelines

- `toolsepc-ctx.md` - Tool specifications and usage patterns

3. **Run Aider**

```bash

aider

```

Aider will automatically:

- Load the configuration from `.aider.conf.yml`

- Read all specified context files

- Use Claude 3.7 Sonnet for code generation

- Watch for file changes

- Auto-commit changes with descriptive messages

4. **Customize for Your Project**

- Adjust the `read` list to match your project's documentation structure

- Modify `cache-keepalive-pings` based on your session length needs

- Set `stream: true` if you prefer real-time streaming responses

- Disable `auto-commits` if you want manual commit control
