Aider tries to sanity check that it is configured correctly
|
|
to work with the LLM you specified:
|
|
|
|
- It checks to see that all required environment variables are set for the model. These variables are required to configure things like API keys, API base URLs, etc.
|
|
These settings are required to be correct.
|
|
- It checks a metadata database to look up the context window size and token costs for the model.
|
|
It's usually OK if this extra metadata isn't available.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes one or both of these checks will fail, so aider will issue
|
|
some of the following warnings.
|
|
|
|
## Missing environment variables
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Model azure/gpt-4-turbo: Missing these environment variables:
|
|
- AZURE_API_BASE
|
|
- AZURE_API_VERSION
|
|
- AZURE_API_KEY
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You need to set the listed environment variables.
|
|
Otherwise you will get error messages when you start chatting with the model.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Unknown which environment variables are required
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Model gpt-5: Unknown which environment variables are required.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Aider is unable verify the environment because it doesn't know
|
|
which variables are required for the model.
|
|
If required variables are missing,
|
|
you may get errors when you attempt to chat with the model.
|
|
You can look in the
|
|
[litellm provider documentation](https://docs.litellm.ai/docs/providers)
|
|
to see if the required variables are listed there.
|
|
|
|
## Context window size and token costs unavailable.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Model foobar: Unknown model, context window size and token costs unavailable.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you specify a model that aider has never heard of, you will get an
|
|
"unknown model" warning.
|
|
This means aider doesn't know the context window size and token costs
|
|
for that model.
|
|
Some minor functionality will be limited when using such models, but
|
|
it's not really a significant problem.
|
|
|
|
Aider will also try to suggest similarly named models,
|
|
in case you made a typo or mistake when specifying the model name.
