AiderDesk is a steerable desktop orchestration app built on Aider, extensible via TypeScript extensions that register custom tools, slash-commands (e.g. /generate-tests, /deploy), custom chat modes, agent profiles, and UI components, and hook 30+ lifecycle events (onTaskCreated, onToolCalled, onFileAdded, ...). Security surface: extensions run arbitrary TypeScript, expose callable tools to the AI, and can intercept core events to run linters/scripts.
Key features
- TypeScript extension API (tools/commands/modes)
- 30+ lifecycle hooks
- Custom agent profiles + UI components
Use cases
- Enforce project linting via lifecycle hooks
- Expose internal CI/CD tools to the AI
