Introduction
Code Intelligence, Everywhere
Qodo Aware is a deep research agent that is purpose-built for large codebases to surface organizational insights and help teams solve complex technical tasks.
As part of the Qodo Agentic Code Quality Platform, Qodo Aware serves as the core intelligence bringing deep context to Qodo’s AI agents across the SDLC.
Qodo Aware brings deep, contextual intelligence to software teams by allowing them to query their remote codebases, access organizational knowledge, and explore best practices—all without context switching. It combines agent-based orchestration, advanced retrieval techniques, and codebase indexing to function like a “Principal Engineer” embedded in your workflow.
What is Qodo Aware?
At its core, Qodo Aware is a code understanding engine that powers the rest of the Qodo platform.
It connects to your organization’s code across as many as thousands of repositories, and builds a rich internal map of your architecture, logic, and development practices.
Then it uses AI agents to help you query that knowledge, solve problems, and plan confidently without switching tools or asking around.
What can it do?
Qodo Aware connects to your remote codebase, indexes it deeply, and answers your questions like a Principal Engineer would: fast when it can, thorough when it needs to be.
Using Qodo Aware you can query your team's remote codebases, access organizational knowledge, and follow guidelines, all without context switching.
Agents
Qodo Aware supports two agents to fit your workflow:
Ask Agent: Fast answers from your indexed codebase Example: “What does this function do?”
Deep Research (Principal Engineer) Agent: Multi-step reasoning across services Example: “What would break if we refactor this?”
You can also scope answers to specific repos and integrate Qodo Aware into your terminal, CI, or tools via API.
How does it work?
Qodo Aware combines Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with agentic reasoning to deliver intelligent, context-rich responses to your queries.
Indexing: Qodo Aware indexes your repositories from supported Git providers, creating a structured, multi-layered understanding of your codebase.
Retrieval: When you ask a question, Qodo Aware retrieves relevant functions, docs, commit history, and architectural patterns.
Agentic Reasoning: Specialized agents analyze the retrieved context to understand relationships, dependencies, and intent, much like a senior engineer would.
Generation: The model then crafts a clear, accurate response grounded in that understanding.
This makes Qodo Aware an intelligent assistant that reads, interprets, and reasons over your entire codebase to help with implementation, debugging, and architectural decisions.
Why is it different?
Most AI tools only look at a few files.
Qodo Aware goes further with:
Advanced retrieval pipelines that find the right context, not just nearby code
Multi-agent reasoning that breaks down complex tasks
Enterprise-scale indexing that supports thousands of repos and years of history
Qodo Aware helps you with real problems like:
Understanding how a feature works across backend, frontend, and data layers
Planning architectural changes across teams
Finding internal examples and best practices
Getting accurate impact analysis before merging
