ideas: editorial sweep — atomization, interlinking, restructuring
- Split competitive-analysis-2026-05.org → TOC + 9 competitor files in ideas/competitors/. Dropped date from filename. All competitor UUIDs generated, TOC keeps original UUID for backlink continuity. - Deleted passepartout-economics.org archive (replaced by 27-node KB). - Inlined 5 'See also' blocks into natural prose (compliance-index, first-mover-window, revenue-table, orders-of-magnitude-time, native-org-knowledge-base). - Linked 7 orphan compliance pages back to compliance index + finished truncated sentences. - Linked all 14 Agora requirement docs from topic-relevant pages (identity→lisp-machine-security, infrastructure→compute-marketplace, social-space→growth-strategy, exchange→agora-contracts, etc.). - Linked ai-industry-impact from investment-thesis, sufficiency-flip, verification-appliance, effects-growth-flywheel (up from 1 to 10+ pages). - Fixed CREATED timestamps to use git commit dates instead of today. - Made all links absolute from root (no port inheritance). - Removed stale agora/docs/ duplicate content.

#+title: Aider — AI Coding Agent
|
||||
#+filetags: :passepartout:strategy:competitive:aider:
|
||||
|
||||
Language: Python. ~6.8M pip installs. ~40K lines. MIT license. The oldest and most mature open-source coding agent.
|
||||
|
||||
Architecture: Chat-based Coder class with 5 edit formats (diff, udiff, patch, whole, architect). Uses litellm for universal provider access (50+ providers). RepoMap provides codebase awareness via cosine-similarity embedding.
|
||||
|
||||
Safety model: Purely prompt-based plus user-confirmation dialogs. No deterministic gate stack. No sandboxing. No model output validator. The allowed_to_edit() gate is a single user confirmation call. --yes flag auto-approves. Aider can edit its own source code with no special protection — self-modification is undetectable.
|
||||
|
||||
Data model: Ad-hoc. Chat messages in memory. Git commits for persistence. RepoMap is a cosine-similarity index. No persistent memory across sessions. No knowledge graph.
|
||||
|
||||
Self-modification: Full. No guard against editing its own files.
|
||||
|
||||
Verification: None.
|
||||
|
||||
Key gap vs Passepartout: No safety gates, no persistent memory model, no knowledge representation, no verification, no self-modification protection, no architecture for neurosymbolic reasoning. It is a thin shell around litellm + edit format parsers.
