File Management

Adding Files:

• At launch: aider file1.py file2.js
• During session: /add path/to/file.py
• Creating new files: /add newfile.py

Removing Files:

• Use /drop filename.py to remove files no longer needed

Viewing Current Files:

• Use /ls to see all files and which are in the chat

Best Practices:

• Only add files that need editing for the current task
• Remove files with /drop when done with them
• Aider will add context from related files automatically
• Use /read-only file.py for reference files that shouldn't be edited
