Advanced Features

Advanced SuperQode features for users who want more control over tools, safety, sessions, harnesses, and the TUI.

The Engine

  • Inside the Agent Loop

    The run lifecycle and every guard: steering, auto-continue, reminders, doom-loop detection, deferred tools, compaction, rubric self-grading.

    Inside the Agent Loop

  • Tools Catalog

    Every builtin tool: three edit dialects, interactive shell sessions, vision, peer agents, and the guarantees behind all of them.

    Tools Catalog

  • Policies & Safety

    The order of authority: hooks, exec-policy rules, env filtering, permission escalation, sandboxing.

    Policies & Safety

  • Multi-Agent Workflows

    Sub-agents, long-lived peer agents with live steering, A2A, and rubric quality gates.

    Multi-Agent Workflows

  • Headless & CI

    One-shot runs, JSON events, schema-validated output, rubric gates, session exports, worktree isolation.

    Headless & CI

User Controls

  • Safety & Permissions

    Security model, permission rules, and dangerous operation handling.

    Safety & Permissions

Features

  • Memory & Learning

    Persistent learning system that remembers patterns and learns from feedback.

    Memory & Learning

  • Tools System

    Comprehensive tool system with 20+ tools for AI coding agents.

    Tools System

  • Harness System

    Reusable specs for runtime, model, tool, approval, event, and output policy.

    Harness System

  • Optimization Story

    Choose the right optimization layer: local model routing, harness specs, markdown skills, or custom staged optimizers.

    Optimization Story

  • Skill Optimization

    Use GEPA to evolve markdown skills against SuperQode harness eval tasks, with staged output and bounded-edit checks.

    Skill Optimization

  • HarnessBench

    Produce verifiable same-model harness comparisons with repeated raw runs, variance, Pareto scorecards, and artifact checksums.

    HarnessBench

  • Contextual Policy and Credentials

    Layer organization, project, harness, WorkOrder, and session rules while keeping host-bound secrets outside model context.

    Contextual Policy

  • Harness Promotion

    Move audited candidates through deterministic canaries, live held-out gates, activation, and verified rollback.

    Harness Promotion

  • Omnigent Compatibility

    Import Omnigent agent.yaml files into SuperQode harness specs while keeping SuperQode as the controlling harness.

    Omnigent Compatibility

  • Building a Code Factory

    Understand how HarnessSpecs, sessions, WorkOrders, workers, evidence, delivery gates, evaluation, and optimization form one builder system.

    Code Factory guide

  • SuperQode and Omnigent

    Understand the ideas both products share, their different design priorities, SuperQode's remote-control options, and the Omnigent import path.

    SuperQode and Omnigent

  • Session Management

    Persistent session storage, sharing, and coordination.

    Session Management

  • Terminal UI

    Rich terminal interface with widgets and interactive features.

    TUI

How These Features Work Together

These advanced features help you run controlled coding-agent sessions:

  • Memory & Learning: Learns from feedback
  • Harness System: Defines reusable runtime, model, tool, approval, and event policy
  • Session Management: Persists work
  • Tools System: Provides capabilities

Configuration

Most advanced features are configured in superqode.yaml:

superqode:
  permissions:
    default: ask
  session:
    storage: file
  memory:
    enabled: true
