By default, QoderWork works within conversations and local files. But real work spans browsers, calendars, email, and more. Connectors bridge that gap — once enabled, QoderWork can operate Chrome and interact with macOS native apps on your behalf.QoderWork currently offers three types of connectors:
Connector
What it does
Good for
Browser Connector
Controls Chrome — opens pages, clicks, fills forms, extracts data
Research, data exports, web automation
macOS Connector
Reads and writes Calendar, Reminders, Notes, Mail, Contacts
The browser connector gives QoderWork control of your browser — navigating pages, clicking buttons, extracting data, and filling forms. Supports Chrome, Edge, and other Chromium-based browsers.
A lot of day-to-day work involves repetitive browser tasks: exporting data from a dashboard, checking competitor pricing, copying information across tabs. None of it is hard, but it’s time-consuming and error-prone. The browser connector lets you describe what you need in plain language and the AI handles the rest.
In QoderWork, go to Settings → Connector and toggle on My Browser, then choose your installation method:
Stable (recommended)
Preview
One-click install from the Chrome Web Store — trusted, secure, and auto-updating.
1
Install the extension
Click Install from Chrome Web Store. Complete the installation on the store page that opens.
2
Connect
Open a regular web page in your browser (e.g. Google, GitHub — not the default new tab page).
Click the QoderWork extension icon in the toolbar. When it shows Connected, setup is complete.
Get early access to the latest browser extension features. Requires manual installation of a local extension package.
1
Open the extensions page
Click Open Chrome Extensions Page and enable the Developer mode toggle (usually in the top-right corner).
2
Open the extension folder
Click Open Folder to locate the extension directory, or click Copy Path to copy the path.
3
Drag to install
Drag the extension folder directly onto the browser extensions page. The browser will install it automatically.
4
Connect
Open a regular web page in your browser (e.g. Google, GitHub — not the default new tab page).
Click the QoderWork extension icon in the toolbar. When it shows Connected, setup is complete.
Once connected, the AI takes over the active tab. Avoid manually interacting with that tab while a task is running — it may conflict with the AI’s actions.
Open https://huggingface.co/models,filter by "Text Generation" sorted by recently updated,extract the top 10 model names, downloads, likes, and publish dates,and put them in an Excel spreadsheet sorted by downloads.
Web scraping
Open https://github.com/trending,extract today's trending repos — name, description, stars, and language —and save as a Markdown table in the workspace.
Industry news gathering
Open Hacker News, scan today's top 10 posts,filter for anything related to "AI" or "Machine Learning,"open each article and pull out the key takeaways,then compile everything into a Markdown digest.
Bulk form filling
Read "team-members.xlsx" from the workspace,then open our internal admin system (https://admin.example.com)and fill in the new-member form row by row — name, department, role.Take a screenshot after each entry for confirmation.
The macOS connector lets QoderWork read and write data in your Mac’s built-in apps — turning Calendar, Mail, Reminders, and more into an AI-accessible workspace.
Enable each app individually under Settings → Connector → macOS Connector:
Reminders
Create tasks, set due dates, and mark items complete. Works as your AI-powered to-do manager.
Calendar
View today’s schedule, create events, and check for conflicts. Helps you plan your day.
Notes
Save meeting notes, key takeaways, or quick ideas from conversations directly into Notes.
Mail
Read emails and create drafts. Summarize your inbox, extract key info, and draft replies.
Contacts
Look up contact details, search by name or company, and create new entries.
The first time you enable an app, macOS will ask for permission (e.g., “QoderWork wants to access your Calendar”). Grant access once and you won’t be asked again.
Check my calendar for today,add the 3 PM meeting to Reminders as high priority,and create a note in Notes listing the materials I need to prepare.
Email summary
Read all unread emails from today,rank them by importance and summarize each in one sentence,save the top 3 in detail to Notes.If any need a reply today, draft one and put it in my drafts folder.
Cross-app lookup
Check my calendar for this week, find all external meetings.For each one, look up the attendee in Contacts,then generate a meeting brief with time, name, contact info, and topic.
The Microsoft 365 connector lets QoderWork securely access your Microsoft account, bringing your cross-platform work into the AI’s reach. Once connected, QoderWork can triage your Outlook inbox, manage your schedule, track your To Do lists, and interact with your OneDrive files.
Summarize the important emails I received today.If any of them are meeting invites, check my Outlook calendar for conflicts.If I'm free, add the meeting to my calendar and draft a reply confirming I'll be there.
Context-aware task planning
Check my Microsoft To Do list for today and find the high-priority tasks.For each task, search my OneDrive for relevant reference documents,and append the document links directly into the task's notes.
When both connectors are enabled, QoderWork can work across apps in a single task:Browser + Calendar
Check tomorrow's meetings in my calendar,use the browser to research each attendee's company,and compile a pre-meeting brief in Notes.
Browser + Mail
Read all client emails from today,for each product issue mentioned, search our docs site in the browser,and create a problem-vs-solution table in the workspace.
Everything together
1. Check today's calendar — list all meetings2. Read unread emails — pick out anything flagged as important3. Open the browser and check the team project board for today's to-dos4. Pull it all together into a daily briefing, save to Notes, and create a matching Reminder
Pair multi-connector workflows with Scheduled Tasks for fully hands-off automation. For example, schedule the daily briefing above for 9 AM every weekday — it’ll be ready when you sit down.
When using the browser connector, give a direct URL in your prompt rather than asking the AI to find the site. “Open https://analytics.google.com” beats “find Google Analytics” every time.
Connectors pair naturally with QoderWork’s local file capabilities. Scrape data from a website and save it as a local Excel file, or read a local spreadsheet and fill out a web form — data flows freely between browser, native apps, and your filesystem.
For multi-step workflows involving page navigation or app switching, walk through the flow once in a regular conversation. Once it works, save the prompt as a Skill or scheduled task so you can reuse it.
CAPTCHAs, QR-code logins, and two-factor prompts are things the AI can’t handle alone. When it hits one, step in and complete the verification — the AI picks up right where it left off once you’re through.
Q: I enabled a connector but the conversation says the tool isn’t available?A: After toggling a connector on or off, you need to start a new conversation for it to take effect. It won’t appear in an existing chat.Q: What do I do about login pages or CAPTCHAs?A: QoderWork can’t bypass CAPTCHAs, SMS verification, or QR-code logins automatically. Complete the verification yourself and the AI will continue from the logged-in state.Q: macOS denied the permission request — how do I fix it?A: If you clicked “Don’t Allow” the first time, go to System Settings → Privacy & Security, find the relevant category (Calendar, Reminders, etc.), and add QoderWork to the allowed list.Q: Is it normal for browser actions to be slower than regular chat?A: Yes. The browser connector needs to capture and analyze page content in real time, which involves screenshots and element parsing. Network conditions and page complexity also affect speed. For data-heavy tasks, break the prompt into smaller steps.
