Qoder CLI ACP Setup
Qoder CLI ACP setup: run Qoder CLI over the Agent Client Protocol and connect it to AgentRQ for human-in-the-loop task management.
Qoder CLI is an agentic coding CLI listed as ACP-compatible, so it can run behind AgentRQ's gateway with no custom integration code.
Wondering which other coding agents support ACP? See the ACP support table for 33 agents.
Want Qoder CLI to use websites too? Connect Qoder CLI to WebMCP shows how it can call a site's WebMCP tools in your own Chrome.
Does Qoder CLI Support ACP?
Yes. Qoder CLI publishes an ACP server to the ACP registry as qoder, so AgentRQ's gateway can fetch and run it by name — there is nothing to install by hand.
What Connecting via ACP Gets You
Once Qoder CLI is bridged through AgentRQ's ACP Gateway, every task it works on shows up on your AgentRQ task board in real time. You can approve risky commands, reply with extra context, or reassign work — from the dashboard or Slack — without touching the terminal Qoder is running in.
Connect Qoder CLI
Run both commands from your project root — the directory holding your .mcp.json.
Log in (the first run also downloads the agent):
npx @agentrq/acp-gateway@latest --login --agent qoder
Start the bridge, and leave it running — it picks up tasks as you assign them:
npx @agentrq/acp-gateway@latest --agent qoder
That .mcp.json is what tells the gateway which workspace to take tasks from:
{
"mcpServers": {
"agentrq": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://WORKSPACE_ID.mcp.agentrq.com/mcp?token=TOKEN"
}
}
}
See the ACP Gateway guide for the full setup walkthrough, including where to find your Workspace ID and token.
FAQ
Does Qoder CLI work with AgentRQ?
Yes — Qoder CLI is listed as an ACP-compatible agent, so it connects to AgentRQ through the open-source ACP Gateway with no custom integration code.
How do I connect Qoder CLI to AgentRQ?
Run npx @agentrq/acp-gateway@latest --login --agent qoder from your project root, then start the bridge with the same command minus --login. A .mcp.json there points the gateway at your AgentRQ workspace.
What is the Agent Client Protocol (ACP)?
ACP is an open, editor-agnostic protocol that lets any coding agent talk to any client over a standard JSON-RPC interface. AgentRQ's gateway implements the client side of ACP, so any ACP-compatible agent — including Qoder CLI — can use AgentRQ as its human-in-the-loop task manager.
