With aider you can run a second instance along with --watch-files and if you in your tasks do // #AI it will be added to the chat and with // !AI AI will then respond

so you can do

`backlog task create "Feature" --plan "1. Research\n2. Suggest Implementation// #AI AI!"` (yes weird order with the !)

and in the background aider will propose solutions.

I’m not sure how this compares to Claude Code or Codex, but its LLM-flexible. Downside is it doesn’t create a pull request. So it’s more helpful for local code.

I would probably add some Readme.md files to the --watch-files session and I think you need to click once [D]ont ask again so it wont keep asking you to add files
