How close can you get Aider to Claude Code? Ie i liked the Claude Code UX, but i don't use it because i prefer Gemini 2.5 Pro.

I don't really want it committing and stuff, i mostly like the UX of Claude Code. Thoughts?

You can turn off auto commit
You can disable the automatic commits, but you cannot disable the automatic modification of files. One nice thing about Claude Code is that you can give it feedback on a patch before it is even applied.
That's the whole point of /architect mode, no? You refine the solution in the prompt before aider asks you if you want to apply the changes.
No, I just tried this on the latest version of Aider and it automatically made the change with architect mode enabled.
Then use /ask mode. If this still edits your files something is broken.
I’m ok with auto commit because I’m ok with just reversing it. Got to make sure you have a branch
