Aider holds an Evidaxis momentum score of 18.7 of 100 on methodology m2, snapshot 2026-08-08, measured within the Coding Agents cohort (n = 20). No axis is currently rising within the cohort, and no second (citation) axis is available, so it sits below the two-axis gate.
Derived signals
second-order reads, computed from the published series
Three signals ship when the commit series is statistically sufficient; the rest are held in a reserved state
until the data supports them. A reserved signal shows its reason, never a fabricated number.

Verdict
Aider is tracked. No axis is currently rising relative to its cohort, and it has no second (citation) axis available.
Path to Rising: needs development velocity to recover (at least 5 commits per week and a positive within-cohort slope); a second measurable axis to exist (no academic paper is currently tracked).
