Cohere

Cohere offers free API access to their models. Their Command-R+ model works well with aider as a very basic coding assistant. You’ll need a Cohere API key.

First, install aider:

python -m pip install aider-install
aider-install

Then configure your API keys:

export COHERE_API_KEY=<key> # Mac/Linux
setx   COHERE_API_KEY <key> # Windows, restart shell after setx

Start working with aider and Cohere on your codebase:

# Change directory into your codebase
cd /to/your/project

aider --model command-r-plus-08-2024

# List models available from Cohere
aider --list-models cohere_chat/
