Ask HN: What's your favorite architect/editor pair with Aider?

7•34679•4h ago
I'm currently using Gemini 2.5 Pro as the architect with Devstral Small (free version via OpenRouter) as the editor. I've only spent a few hours with it so far, but have been impressed with the quality of results and reduction of cost.

What pairs have you tried? Do you have any that you've been really impressed with?

This LLM leaderboard page is what got me interested:

Some setups can run devstral small locally. Have you tried?

Also have you tried any other open weight models as the architect?

Third, as far as I understood, devstral was made with open hands so it might perform better there than aider out of the box.

Finally, I'm looking for local llm only setups for apple silicon 32gb and was considering devstral with open hands.
