Add Aider integration for beads issue tracking

Implements GH#206 and bd-3djj: Add support for Aider AI pair programming
tool with beads issue tracking.

Changes:
- Added cmd/bd/setup/aider.go with InstallAider, CheckAider, RemoveAider
- Created .aider.conf.yml template with bd workflow instructions
- Added .aider/README.md template with quick reference
- Updated cmd/bd/setup.go to include aider subcommand
- Fixed cmd/bd/main.go to allow setup subcommands without database by
  checking parent command name
- Added comprehensive docs/AIDER_INTEGRATION.md documentation

Key differences from Claude/Cursor integration:
- Aider requires explicit command execution via /run
- AI suggests bd commands rather than running autonomously
- Documentation emphasizes human-in-the-loop workflow
- Config instructs AI to always suggest, never execute

Usage:
  bd setup aider          # Install integration
  bd setup aider --check  # Verify installation
  bd setup aider --remove # Remove integration

Resolves bd-3djj

+
+## How This Works with Aider
+
+**Important**: Aider requires you to explicitly run commands using the ` + "`/run`" + ` command.
+The AI will **suggest** bd commands, but you must confirm them.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+1. Check for available work:
+   ` + "```bash" + `
+   /run bd ready
+   ` + "```" + `
+
+2. Create new issues:
+   ` + "```bash" + `
+   /run bd create "Issue title" --description="Details" -t bug|feature|task -p 1
+   ` + "```" + `
+
+3. Claim work:
+   ` + "```bash" + `
+   /run bd update bd-42 --status in_progress
+   ` + "```" + `
+
+4. Complete work:
+   ` + "```bash" + `
+   /run bd close bd-42 --reason "Done"
+   ` + "```" + `
+
+5. Sync at end of session:
+   ` + "```bash" + `
+   /run bd sync
+   ` + "```" + `
+
+## Configuration
+
+The ` + "`.aider.conf.yml`" + ` file contains instructions for the AI about bd workflow.
+The AI will read these instructions and suggest appropriate bd commands.
+
+## Workflow
+
+Ask the AI questions like:
+- "What issues are ready to work on?"
+- "Create an issue for this bug I found"
+- "Show me the details of bd-42"
+- "Mark bd-42 as complete"
+
+The AI will suggest the appropriate ` + "`bd`" + ` command, which you run via ` + "`/run`" + `.
+
+## Issue Types
+
+- ` + "`bug`" + ` - Something broken
+- ` + "`feature`" + ` - New functionality
+- ` + "`task`" + ` - Work item (tests, docs, refactoring)
+- ` + "`epic`" + ` - Large feature with subtasks
+- ` + "`chore`" + ` - Maintenance work
+
+## Priorities
+
+- ` + "`0`" + ` - Critical (security, data loss, broken builds)
+- ` + "`1`" + ` - High (major features, important bugs)
+- ` + "`2`" + ` - Medium (default, nice-to-have)
+- ` + "`3`" + ` - Low (polish, optimization)
+- ` + "`4`" + ` - Backlog (future ideas)
+
+## More Information
+
+- Run ` + "`bd --help`" + ` for full command reference
+- See ` + "`AGENTS.md`" + ` for detailed AI integration docs
+- See ` + "`QUICKSTART.md`" + ` for human-oriented guide

+# Aider Integration Guide
+
+This guide explains how to integrate [Aider](https://aider.chat/) with Beads for AI-assisted coding with issue tracking.
+
+## Overview
+
+Aider is an AI pair programming tool that works in your terminal. Unlike autonomous AI agents like Claude Code, **Aider requires explicit user confirmation** to run commands via the `/run` command.
+
+The beads integration for Aider:
+- Creates `.aider.conf.yml` with bd workflow instructions
+- Provides `.aider/README.md` with quick reference
+- Instructs the AI to **suggest** bd commands (not run them automatically)
+- Works with aider's human-in-the-loop design philosophy
+
+## Installation
+
+### 1. Install Beads
+
+```bash
+# Install beads CLI
+go install github.com/steveyegge/beads/cmd/bd@latest
+
+# Initialize in your project
+cd your-project
+bd init --quiet
+```
+
+### 2. Setup Aider Integration
+
+```bash
+# Install aider integration files
+bd setup aider
+
+# Verify installation
+bd setup aider --check
+```
+
+This creates:
+- `.aider.conf.yml` - Instructions for the AI about bd workflow
+- `.aider/README.md` - Quick reference guide
+
+### 3. Install Aider
+
+```bash
+# Install aider via pip
+pip install aider-chat
+
+# Or via pipx (recommended)
+pipx install aider-chat
+```
+
+## Usage Workflow
+
+### Starting a Session
+
+1. **Start aider in your project:**
+   ```bash
+   cd your-project
+   aider
+   ```
+
+2. **Ask the AI about available work:**
+   ```
+   You: What issues are ready to work on?
+
+   Aider: Let me check the available work. Run:
+   /run bd ready
+   ```
+
+3. **Run the suggested command:**
+   ```
+   /run bd ready
+   ```
+
+4. **Choose an issue and ask AI to claim it:**
+   ```
+   You: Let's work on bd-42
+
+   Aider: Great choice! To claim it, run:
+   /run bd update bd-42 --status in_progress
+   ```
+
+### During Development
+
+The AI will suggest appropriate bd commands as you work:
+
+- **Create issues for bugs you find:**
+  ```
+  You: I found a bug in the auth code
+
+  Aider: Let's track that. Run:
+  /run bd create "Fix auth bug in login handler" --description="Login fails with 500 when password contains quotes" -t bug -p 1
+  ```
+
+- **Link discovered work:**
+  ```
+  Aider: Since we found this while working on bd-42, run:
+  /run bd create "Fix auth bug" --description="..." -p 1 --deps discovered-from:bd-42
+  ```
+
+- **Check issue details:**
+  ```
+  /run bd show bd-42
+  ```
+
+### Completing Work
+
+When you're done:
+
+```
+You: This issue is complete
+
+Aider: Great! Mark it complete by running:
+/run bd close bd-42 --reason "Implemented login fix and added tests"
+
+Then sync to git:
+/run bd sync
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+### .aider.conf.yml
+
+The config file contains instructions for the AI:
+
+```yaml
+# Core workflow rules:
+# 1. Track ALL work in bd (never use markdown TODOs)
+# 2. Suggest 'bd ready' to find available work
+# 3. Suggest 'bd create' for new issues/tasks/bugs
+# 4. Suggest 'bd sync' at end of session
+# 5. ALWAYS suggest commands - user will run them via /run
+```
+
+You can customize this file to add project-specific instructions.
+
+### Aider Commands vs bd Commands
+
+**Aider commands** start with `/` and control aider itself:
+- `/run <command>` - Run a shell command
+- `/add <file>` - Add file to context
+- `/help` - Show aider help
+
+**bd commands** are run via `/run`:
+- `/run bd ready` - Check available work
+- `/run bd create "..."` - Create an issue
+- `/run bd show bd-42` - View issue details
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### Starting Work
+
+```bash
+# Check what's available
+/run bd ready
+
+# Claim an issue
+/run bd update bd-abc --status in_progress
+```
+
+### Discovering Work
+
+```bash
+# Create a new issue
+/run bd create "Refactor auth module" --description="Current auth code has tight coupling" -t task -p 2
+
+# Link it to current work
+/run bd dep add bd-new --type discovered-from --target bd-abc
+```
+
+### Completing Work
+
+```bash
+# Close the issue
+/run bd close bd-abc --reason "Implemented and tested"
+
+# Sync to git
+/run bd sync
+```
+
+### Checking Status
+
+```bash
+# View issue details
+/run bd show bd-abc
+
+# List all open issues
+/run bd list --status=open
+
+# Check dependencies
+/run bd dep tree bd-abc
+```
+
+## Comparison: Aider vs Claude Code
+
+### Aider (Human-in-the-Loop)
+
+- ✅ User must confirm all commands via `/run`
+- ✅ Full control over what gets executed
+- ✅ AI **suggests** bd commands
+- ⚠️ More manual interaction required
+
+### Claude Code (Autonomous)
+
+- ✅ AI directly executes bd commands
+- ✅ Faster workflow (no confirmation needed)
+- ✅ Hooks auto-inject bd context
+- ⚠️ Less user control over command execution
+
+**Both approaches work well with beads!** Choose based on your preference for automation vs. control.
+
+## Tips for Aider Users
+
+### 1. Ask for Suggestions
+
+Instead of running commands yourself, ask the AI:
+```
+You: How do I check what work is available?
+Aider: Run `/run bd ready` to see all unblocked issues
+```
+
+### 2. Let the AI Track Work
+
+The AI knows the bd workflow and will suggest appropriate commands:
+```
+You: I'm starting work on the login feature
+Aider: First, let's claim it. Run:
+/run bd update bd-xyz --status in_progress
+```
+
+### 3. Use bd prime for Context
+
+Get the full workflow guide:
+```bash
+/run bd prime
+```
+
+The AI will read this and have complete context about bd commands.
+
+### 4. Create Aliases
+
+Add to your shell config for faster commands:
+```bash
+alias bdr='/run bd ready'
+alias bdc='/run bd create'
+alias bds='/run bd sync'
+```
+
+Then in aider:
+```
+bdr                    # Instead of /run bd ready
+bdc "Fix bug" -t bug  # Instead of /run bd create "Fix bug" -t bug
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "The AI isn't suggesting bd commands"
+
+1. Check that `.aider.conf.yml` exists:
+   ```bash
+   bd setup aider --check
+   ```
+
+2. Reload aider to pick up the config:
+   ```bash
+   # Exit aider (Ctrl-D or /exit)
+   # Restart aider
+   aider
+   ```
+
+3. Explicitly ask about bd:
+   ```
+   You: What should I use for issue tracking?
+   Aider: This project uses Beads (bd) for issue tracking...
+   ```
+
+### "Commands are failing"
+
+Make sure you're in a beads-initialized directory:
+```bash
+/run bd doctor
+```
+
+If not initialized:
+```bash
+/run bd init --quiet
+```
+
+### "I want to remove the integration"
+
+```bash
+bd setup aider --remove
+```
+
+This removes `.aider.conf.yml` and `.aider/README.md`.
+
+## Advanced Usage
+
+### Multi-File Context
+
+Aider can track multiple files. Combine with bd:
+
+```
+You: Add the auth files to context and check for related issues
+
+/run bd list --json | grep -i auth
+/add src/auth/*.py
+```
+
+### Batch Operations
+
+Run multiple bd commands in sequence:
+```bash
+# In your shell (not aider)
+bd ready && bd show bd-42 && bd update bd-42 --status in_progress
+```
+
+### Integration with Git
+
+Aider handles git commits. bd tracks issues. They work together:
+
+1. Claim issue: `/run bd update bd-42 --status in_progress`
+2. Make changes with aider
+3. Aider commits changes
+4. Complete issue: `/run bd close bd-42`
+5. Sync issues: `/run bd sync`
+
+## Example Session
+
+```
+$ aider
+
+You: What issues are ready to work on?
+
+Aider: Let me check. Run:
+/run bd ready
+
+📋 Ready work (3 issues with no blockers):
+1. [P1] bd-42: Fix login bug
+2. [P2] bd-99: Add password reset
+3. [P3] bd-17: Refactor auth tests
+
+You: Let's work on bd-42
+
+Aider: Great! First claim it:
+/run bd update bd-42 --status in_progress
+
+You: Can you show me the details?
+
+Aider: Run:
+/run bd show bd-42
+
+[Shows issue details]
+
+You: Ok, add the auth files to context
+
+Aider: Added src/auth/login.py and src/auth/utils.py
+
+You: Fix the bug described in the issue
+
+[Aider makes the changes]
+
+You: Looks good! Mark it complete
+
+Aider: Run:
+/run bd close bd-42 --reason "Fixed login bug - added input validation"
+
+Then sync:
+/run bd sync
+```
