## Qoder CLI Core Modes and Advanced Usage
### TUI Mode (Interactive Text Interface)
TUI (Text User Interface) is the default interactive mode of Qoder CLI, supporting text conversations, command execution, and other core operations. It is the main way for daily use.
#### 1. Startup Method
Execute the following command in any project root directory to enter TUI mode:
qodercli
#### 2. Input Modes
TUI provides multiple input modes for different operation scenarios. Enter the corresponding symbol to switch:
| Command Symbol | Mode Name | Description |

| `>` | Conversation Mode | Default mode, enter any text to have natural conversation with CLI |
| `!` | Bash Mode | Enter `!` in conversation mode to directly run shell commands |
| `/` | Slash Mode | Enter `/` in conversation mode to call built-in function commands |
| `#` | Memory Mode | Enter `#` in conversation mode, content will be appended to the project's `AGENTS.md` memory file |
| ` + Enter` | Multi-line Input | Enter `` then press Enter to input multi-line text content |
#### 3. Built-in Tools

## MCP Service Integration
Qoder CLI supports integrating standard MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools to extend CLI capabilities (such as browser control, third-party tool calls).
### 1. Add MCP Service
Taking Playwright (browser control) integration as an example, execute the following command:
qodercli mcp add playwright -- npx -y @playwright/mcp@latest
### 2. Manage MCP Services
| Command | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `qodercli mcp list` | List all added MCP services |
| `qodercli mcp remove playwright` | Remove specified MCP service (example is playwright) |
### 3. Advanced Configuration (Optional)
* `-t`: Set MCP service type, supports `stdio`/`sse`/`streamable-http` (Stdio type will auto-start when TUI launches);
* `-s`: Set service scope, supports "user-level" or "project-level", can customize MCP configuration per project.
### 4. MCP Service File Storage Location
Added MCP service configurations will be saved in the following files:
# Added for current user or specific project, will not be committed.~/.qoder.json # Added for current project, usually will be committed. ${project}/.mcp.json
