What is CodeBanana?
CodeBanana is an AI workspace made by Mobvoi where people and AI agents work in the same project thread. Each project combines a discussion, a Team Agent you can mention to write code, analyze data or draft documents, and a workspace that keeps what the team builds as reusable knowledge. It runs on the web, iOS, Android and a desktop app for macOS and Windows.
It began as a collaborative cloud IDE, often described as Google Docs for code, and that coding side is still there: shared cloud machines, Git, a terminal, live preview and one-click deploys. On top of it the product now adds team features such as shared agents, a skill market and scheduled agent jobs, so engineering, marketing and operations teams can hand recurring work to agents without leaving the chat.
Main Features
- Project threads where people and a Team Agent discuss, decide and execute in one place.
- Coding mode with a full cloud IDE, real-time co-editing, Git, terminal, live preview and deploy to a codebanana.app address.
- Start a project from a template, a GitHub import, or a prompt with files and screenshots attached.
- Multi-agent workflows that pass tasks between projects, with a trace of every step.
- Skill Market for turning a team's know-how into reusable agent skills built from SKILL.md files.
- Cron jobs that run agents on a schedule, on an interval, or when a file or event changes.
- Organization management with departments, roles and auditable permissions for both people and agents.
- Model choice across Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi and others, plus an Auto mode that picks one for you.
