Introducing Qoder CN CLI 1.0
New features- Cloud runtime: Added support for the `qodercli --remote` flag. Cloud mode lets you submit tasks to a cloud container for one-time execution. The workflow continues to run for hours even if you shut down your machine or lose your network connection.
- RepoWiki: Added support for the `qodercli wiki` subcommand to generate repowiki documents locally without your code leaving your domain.
- Voice: Added support for the `/voice` command. The speech input feature is fully upgraded and available for free.
- Goal: Added support for the `/goal` command to keep long-running, goal-oriented tasks on track.
- Open model parameters: You can now customize `efforts` levels and set a 1M context window.
- Agent SDK: Supports TypeScript and Python. Integrate full Agent capabilities with just a few lines of code. Provides programmatic control, including tool authorization callbacks, pre-execution interception, and parameter modification.
- Cloud Agents: Agents as a Service. Built-in features include sandbox isolation, state management, asynchronous orchestration, credential management, and a long-running platform.
- Orchestration: Tasks are automatically split and executed in parallel by multiple Agents. The main Agent determines the splitting policy, and Subagents run in independent event loops.
- Extensions: Supports five orthogonal extension points: Skills, Hooks, MCP, Subagent, and Command.
- Autonomy: The Agent assesses risks on its own and only requests confirmation for critical nodes. Automatically routes requests to Large Language Models (LLMs), Small Language Models (SLMs), or Vision Language Models (VLMs).
- Integration: Supports three integration modes: Headless (for unattended CI/CD), ACP (for standard bidirectional communication), and SDK (for TypeScript/Python).
Automatic mode improvements
