General

Preferences

Personalize the interface and conversation experience:

Profile

Manage your avatar and account information:
  • Avatar — Customize the background color (11 options) and icon (username initials or Emoji).
  • Email — Displays the email address linked to your current account (read-only).
  • Subscription — Shows your current plan. Click “View plans & pricing” to go to the pricing page.
  • Sign out — Sign out on this device. You can sign back in at any time.

System Settings

System-level options including startup, wake lock, and notifications: System permissions — The following permissions can be granted in System Settings: Data sharing — Your data is never used to improve the product; it is only used to provide basic services. You can switch to Privacy Mode here. For enterprise accounts, this setting can only be changed by an admin in the organization settings.

Voice Input

Global voice input hotkey and transcription settings (see Voice Input):
  • Enable voice input — Enable the global voice input hotkey. Press once to start recording; press again to stop and transcribe.
  • Enable bottom floating window — When no window is focused, pressing the voice hotkey pops up a floating window at the bottom of the screen. When off, pressing the hotkey has no effect (the microphone button in the input bar is not affected).
  • Hotkey mode — Choose how to trigger recording: single key or a key combination (e.g. Ctrl+Shift+Space).
  • Trigger key — The selected key only triggers voice input when pressed alone; normal key combinations are not affected.

App Snapshot

Capture the frontmost app’s screenshot and readable text as conversation context (see App Snapshots):
  • Global hotkey — Select the trigger (e.g., pressing both left and right Option keys simultaneously).

Keyboard Shortcuts

View and customize keyboard shortcuts. Search for a shortcut or click any entry to record a new combination. General Tasks Conversation QuickPick — A global quick-task window. Submit tasks without switching to the main window. Supports a key combination (e.g. ⌥ Space) or double-tap modifier key as trigger modes.

Awareness

Cross-session memory and collaboration style personalization. See Awareness.

App Update

Check for and install new versions of QoderWork (same as “Check for Updates” in the menu bar). When a new version is available, a prompt appears — only after you confirm does QoderWork download and relaunch. If you’re already on the latest version, you’ll see a “You’re up to date” message.

Archived

Manage archived tasks. Restore or permanently delete individual tasks, or use “Delete all” in the top-right corner to clear everything at once.

Extensions & integrations

Workspaces

Configure workspace modes and the default mode for new tasks: Slide templates — Manage built-in and custom slide templates. Import your own templates here.

Advanced

Secure Work Environment

Runs tasks in a separate isolated space on your computer — faster execution, more stable, and all files and data stay on your device:
  • Enable Secure Work Environment — When on, tasks run in an isolated environment that doesn’t affect other files on your computer and never touches the real system.
  • Clean up workspace files to free disk space — Deletes downloaded workspace files. Your conversation history and artifacts are not affected.
