Summary
PTY-only REPL agent: startup command carries agent-specific flags (--no-auto-commits, --no-suggest-shell-commands), ^>$ idle, /run tool-call prefix, multi_session = false, unmetered cost.
Key findings
- Startup commands embed policy flags; drivers append model/session args to this prefix rather than replacing it.
multi_session = falseis the only false in the set: orchestrators MUST serialize aider sessions.metered = false: nocap.usageexpected; budget enforcement for aider is wall-clock/turn-count only.
Pros / strengths
- The serial/unmetered corner that tai's orchestrator caps must respect.
Cons / limitations / caveats
/run-prefixed tool-call pattern is thin; PTY tool events for aider will be sparse by design.
Relevance to tai
Orchestrator fixture for single-session agents and unmetered budget handling.
