# Aider chat conversation:
USER: in `cmd_tokens` make use of main_model.token_count() rather than calling tokenizer directly
ASSISTANT: To make this change, we need to modify `aider/commands.py`. Specifically, we will update the `cmd_tokens` method to use `self.coder.main_model.token_count()` instead of calling `self.tokenizer.encode()` directly.
Here is the *SEARCH/REPLACE* block for the change:
aider/commands.py
<source>python
<<<<<<< SEARCH
tokens = len(self.tokenizer.encode(json.dumps(msgs)))
=======
tokens = self.coder.main_model.token_count(json.dumps(msgs))
>>>>>>> REPLACE
</source>
aider/commands.py
<source>python
<<<<<<< SEARCH
tokens = len(self.tokenizer.encode(msgs))
=======
tokens = self.coder.main_model.token_count(msgs)
>>>>>>> REPLACE
</source>
aider/commands.py
<source>python
<<<<<<< SEARCH
tokens = len(self.tokenizer.encode(repo_content))
=======
tokens = self.coder.main_model.token_count(repo_content)
>>>>>>> REPLACE
</source>
aider/commands.py
<source>python
<<<<<<< SEARCH
tokens = len(self.tokenizer.encode(content))
=======
tokens = self.coder.main_model.token_count(content)
>>>>>>> REPLACE
</source>
These changes will ensure that the `cmd_tokens` method uses the `token_count` method from the `main_model` to calculate the number of tokens, which is a more abstracted and potentially model-specific way of counting tokens.

ASSISTANT: To handle this issue, we need to modify the `cmd_add` method in the `Commands` class in the `aider/commands.py` file. We will add a check to see if the file is ignored by git before trying to add it. If it is ignored, we will print an error message and skip adding the file.

Succeeded in tricky task in the grep-ast codebase:
- checkout ed714ffe58734 / tricky-search-and-replace-state
- "read and parse .gitignore once, not each time we recurse `enumerate_files`"
- was having a lot of trouble creating a head/updated block that matched the actual source code
- new search/replace block does much better
Benchmark had *best* try 1 result and *lowest* num_error_outputs ever seen on gpt-4-0613.
Low num_error_outputs means it's less likely to elide/... code in the before block (original/search).
