Notes

  • Aider uses the openai/ prefix for model names: openai/best or openai/qwen-3.6-plus.
  • Model aliases work with Aider: --model openai/code.
  • For large codebases, use gemini-2.5-flash (1M context) with alias long-context.
  • Kyma’s fallback system ensures requests never fail, even during provider outages.
