Why MOLTamp for Aider

Built for how Aider actually works

  • Aider runs untouched — MOLTamp spawns it, never modifies it
  • Bring any provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter, local) — Aider's config is authoritative
  • Git integration keeps working exactly as before
  • Skins designed to read well against Aider's diff-heavy output
  • Widgets for git status, token usage, and music while you pair

Feature set

What you get on top of Aider

Provider-agnostic

Aider handles provider selection. MOLTamp does not care whether you are hitting Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter, or a local model.

Diff-friendly skins

Many MOLTamp skins are designed for high-contrast output — perfect for Aider's git diff display.

Git status widget

Live git status pinned next to your Aider session — branch, dirty files, commit ahead/behind.

Widget library

Music, visualizers, Pomodoro, Live2D companions. Code to your taste.

Multi-agent workflows

Aider in one tab, Claude Code in another, Codex in a third — same shell, same skins, different agents.

Open community

Skins and widgets are authored by the community. Browse, rate, publish.

FAQ

Questions Aider users ask

Does MOLTamp work with Aider's model selection?

Yes — Aider handles all model selection. MOLTamp just wraps the process, so whatever model Aider is configured to use works identically.

Do I lose git integration when running Aider inside MOLTamp?

No. Aider's git features work exactly as before. MOLTamp does not intercept git calls.

Can I see file diffs more clearly with a MOLTamp skin?

Yes — many skins are explicitly tuned for high-contrast output, which reads well against Aider's diff display.

Is there a MOLTamp widget for watching Aider's edit history?

Not a dedicated one yet, but the general telemetry widget surfaces relevant stream events. A first-party Aider widget is on the roadmap.
