Awareness is QoderWork’s memory and personalization system. When enabled, it continuously records your preferences and work habits so every new conversation starts with full context — not a blank slate. Access the Awareness page from the Awareness icon in the left sidebar. It includes two main toggles, an evolution activity panel, and management entries for all awareness files.
Awareness settings page: Awareness Mode and Auto Memory toggles at the top, followed by the Evolution Activity section with a memory trend chart and today's stats

​
Main Toggles

  • Awareness Mode: The master switch. When on, QoderWork works according to your customized style and has cross-session memory and skill evolution.
  • Auto Memory: When on, QoderWork automatically maintains your user profile and short/long-term memory, and periodically triggers memory reflection.

​
Evolution Activity

Shows how active the awareness system has been:
  • Memory trend chart — a line chart showing daily memory entry changes, switchable between Day / Week / Month views.
  • Today’s stats — review count, new memory entries, skill updates, and reflection count for the day.
  • Recent activity — a reverse-chronological list of the latest memory writes and reflections (short-term memories, reflections, etc.). Click “Show more” to view the full history.

Awareness Info

Manages all awareness-related files and settings:
EntryDescription

​
Danger Zone

The following actions cannot be undone — proceed with care:
  • Reset collaboration style: Clears the current collaboration style config; you can re-select via “Personalize.”
  • Reset work manual: Restores AGENTS.md to the initial template, overwriting the current content.
  • Clear memory: Deletes USER.md, MEMORY.md, and all memory log files; the search index is rebuilt automatically.
