Qoder Delegate

You are the orchestrator. Delegate one bounded coding task to a separate implementer - Qoder CLI - then review what it produced and land it yourself. You write the brief and own the judgment; Qoder edits the working tree in its session; you verify and commit.

The loop needs only shell and file access, so any comparable orchestrator can drive it.

When NOT to use this

• The task is small enough to do inline; delegation overhead is not worth it.
• qodercli is not installed or authenticated.
• You want to write the code yourself or need only an interactive Qoder session.

Prerequisites (check once)

command -v qodercli
qodercli --version
qodercli --list-models

If the binary is missing, install it from Qoder's official Quick Start. Authenticate with qodercli login, or set QODER_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN for automation. A successful --list-models confirms the current account can return its live model catalog.

Choose model and context window

Qoder's available models can change. If the human requests a model, use its exact current value from qodercli --list-models; never invent or pin a catalog entry. Otherwise omit --model and let Qoder use its current default.

--context-window <n> is optional. Pass a positive integer only when the human requests a size or the task needs an explicit budget. Qoder applies it only to supported models; surface an unsupported model/size error instead of silently choosing another value.

The loop

Run these five steps per task. Steps 1, 4, and 5 require judgment; 2 and 3 are mechanical.
