Qoder BYOK: custom model and Base URL setup (November 2026)

Yes. The official custom models page says Qoder supports accessing third-party provider model resources via API keys; the desktop entry is Settings > Models > Add model and the CLI entry is the Custom tab of /model. The CLI page gives the edition as Individual plan. On the desktop app, custom endpoints come in two types, OpenAI Compatible and Anthropic Compatible. The QCode values are above.

Under Add model, pick a custom endpoint and fill in the Base URL; the official page asks for the exact Base URL supplied by the model service and shows https://api.example.com/v1 as an example format. For QCode, Anthropic Compatible takes https://api.qcode.cc/api and OpenAI Compatible takes https://api.qcode.cc/openai/v1, with no trailing slash; if Anthropic Compatible does not validate, try https://api.qcode.cc/api/v1. If validation fails, the official advice is to check first that the Base URL is complete and the protocol and API type match the endpoint, then the key, Model ID, balance and network.

The official FAQ answers: custom model fees are billed directly to your provider API account and do not use Qoder Credits. The exception sits in the same answer: Repo Wiki uses a fixed model and consumes Qoder Credits, with a prompt when generating. With a QCode key, usage is billed per token, with per-model rates on /models.

In the CLI enter /model, switch to the Custom tab, select Add custom model... and press Enter, then follow the wizard through Provider, model type and model and enter the API key and any other information it asks for; after validation the configuration saves automatically and you can switch to it at once. The official page says not to configure BYOK manually in settings.json. If the Custom tab is missing, confirm that BYOK is available for your account and plan.

As of 2026-11-10, QoderWork's official models page lists Premium, Advanced and Standard plus Qwen3.7-Max and Qwen3.7-Plus, with no custom model entry. The Qoder download page says QoderWork will officially cease operations on 2027-09-05, remains available to download and use until then, and that your Qoder account and credits stay usable with other Qoder products; it recommends moving to Qoder Desktop in advance, whose built-in data import tools bring over task history, skills and memories. To bring your own model, add it in the Qoder desktop app or CLI as described above.

Yes. As of 2026-11-10, Qoder's pricing page lists "Bring Your Own Key (BYOK)" in the Free column of the individual plans, and on 2026-09-12 the official Qoder account on X wrote that starting with v1.1.50, Qoder CLI supports custom model integration for all individual users. If the Custom tab or add entry is missing, the CLI page says to confirm that BYOK is available for the current account and plan. Separately, the official notice (published 2026-09-04) says the Lite model tier was removed from the model selector in all Qoder products on 2026-09-18 at 14:00 Singapore time (UTC+8); that change concerns a model tier, and the pricing page still lists a Lite plan.
