Improvements

• Website sign-in continuity: Supported website pages opened from a signed-in Qoder app can use the current account, reducing repeated sign-ins when viewing usage, upgrading a plan, and performing related actions. Available for Global and CN; excludes self-hosted deployments.
• Remote Control: Syncs task-wide pin and unpin actions in both directions between desktop and the companion mobile client, making it easier to follow the same tasks across devices. Pins within a workspace and manual ordering on each device keep their own settings.
• Credits confirmation: Clicking “Continue” in supported quota notices explicitly authorizes Credits usage for that continuation request. The confirmation can also be sent through mobile remote control and does not automatically carry over to later messages.
• Plan execution: Improves the descriptions and presentation of “Execute as planned” and “Execute this plan in Goal mode,” making it easier to choose the appropriate execution approach.

Fixes

• Fixed shared add-on Credits usage displays when no individual cap is set or no quota is available, and added explanations for these states.

• Enterprise approval controls: Enterprise policies can restrict Full Access and Auto approval. When a mode is disabled, subsequent operations follow an available approval mode.

Improvements

• Agent Teams: Select members from the current device, the cloud, and other devices on the same account, enabling collaboration when required. Connected-device workspaces can use their associated teams. Leaders on other devices can participate in discussions; local tasks remain subject to the execution restrictions of the leader’s device.

Hello, World!

What's New

• Frontier models and smart routing: Qoder brings together leading models without locking you into a single one. Choose the model that fits your task, or let the Auto routing engine balance quality, speed, and cost automatically.
• Harness for complex tasks: Qoder's Harness keeps planning, execution, verification, and self-correction in a continuous loop. For long-running and complex tasks, it retains context, adapts based on real results, and retries or rolls back when needed, while permission tiers and tool allowlists keep sensitive actions within clear boundaries.
• Works in real environments: With Browser Use and Computer Use, Qoder can operate websites and desktop apps as you would, so it can complete work in real environments rather than being limited to chat and codebases.
• An ecosystem that connects: With more than 30 plugins, 20,000 skills, and 20 connectors, Qoder connects to the systems where work happens: code repositories, documents and data sources, collaboration tools, databases, internal APIs, ticketing systems, and monitoring tools.
• Proactive by default: Qoder does more than respond to instructions. It proactively brings unresolved errors, changes without tests, inconsistent logic, task updates, and suggested next steps to your attention. You remain the decision-maker without having to remember everything yourself.
