What problem does it solve?

Aider's caching feature is not enabled by default, which results in lost savings on input costs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Default Caching Activation: Ensures the --cache-prompts flag is enabled by default for supported models, improving cache hit rates.
  • Opt-out instead of Opt-in: Converts Aider's caching system from an opt-in to an opt-out mechanism for users who wish to avoid caching.
  • Per-Model Gate: Only activates caching for models that support it, ensuring no impact on unsupporting models.

Quick Start

Set Aider's caching to default-on with the command: aider --cache-prompts
