From Source

Prerequisites​

  • Node.js 20+
  • Go 1.21+ (for building the aide binary)
  • Git

Build​

git clone https://github.com/jmylchreest/aide && cd aide

# Build the Go binary
cd aide && go build -o ../bin/aide ./cmd/aide && cd ..

# Install JS dependencies and build
npm install && npm run build

Install​

Claude Code​

claude --plugin-dir /path/to/aide

OpenCode​

bunx @jmylchreest/aide-plugin@latest install --plugin-path /path/to/aide
note

The aide Go binary comes with the plugin: npm installs ship it as a per-platform package (@jmylchreest/aide-binary-<platform>-<arch>, an optionalDependency pinned to the plugin version), and Claude Code marketplace installs download it on first run. Building from source is only needed for development or customization.
