aider-delegate
Delegate a coding task to Aider (aider) as a background implementer, then review its diff and land it yourself. Use this whenever the user wants to hand implementation work to Aider — phrasings like "have Aider do X", "delegate this to aider", "run it through Aider", or "use Aider to implement/fix/refactor" — or wants to run a queue of coding tasks through Aider while staying the reviewer. This includes asking Aider…

A SKILL.md that teaches an AI coding agent to delegate implementation work to the Aider CLI as a background implementer. The agent writes a task brief, dispatches Aider headlessly, waits for completion, reviews the resulting diff, and commits it itself.
Reach for it when you want Aider to do the coding while your agent stays the orchestrator and reviewer, including against local OpenAI-compatible endpoints.
Use it to
- Delegate a bounded coding task to Aider and review its diff
- Run a queue of coding tasks through Aider sequentially
- Point Aider at a local model via llama.cpp, Ollama, vLLM, or LM Studio
- Send a delta brief for rework after reviewing Aider's output
