Aider is in development for almost 2 years now. Publishing another tool that "offers significant improvements" will have to catch up first.

Having options is a good thing, and approaching the dev agent problem space from a different perspective will help with pushing ideas in other products as well.

There is always room for more tools. How many database exist? Front end frameworks? Languages? Backend frameworks? Analytics packages?

To think that in this space there is only one solution and all others are just outright failures or not worth doing is weird thinking as that isn't normally how it works. There are usually multiple niches and success/revenue strategies.

I strongly think this is the future of software development. And thus there will be many winners here.
