Install git

Make sure you have git installed. Here are instructions for installing git in various environments.

Get your API key

To work with OpenAI's GPT 3.5 or GPT-4 models you need a paid OpenAI API key. Note that this is different than being a "ChatGPT Plus" subscriber.

To work with Anthropic's models like Claude 3 Opus you need a paid Anthropic API key.

Windows install

# Install aider
py -m pip install aider-chat

# To work with GPT-4o:
$ aider --openai-api-key sk-xxx...

# To work with Claude 3 Opus:
$ aider --anthropic-api-key sk-xxx... --opus

Mac/Linux install

# Install aider
python -m pip install aider-chat

# To work with GPT-4o:
$ aider --openai-api-key sk-xxx...

# To work with Claude 3 Opus:

Aider works well with GPT-4o, Claude 3 Opus, GPT-3.5 and supports connecting to almost any LLM.
