* feat(cli): end the Ink TUI's shared tool batch on the TUI's own stops With experimental.unifiedAgentLoop on, the shared tool batch ends only when no model stream is active, so its decisions see the session as the continuation will. A quota model switch and a background agent launch into the last background slot now end the batch through its result callback, and the completion step stops on the batch's reason. A tool that ends the turn ends it outside a Goal turn too, with its results in history, as on the other surfaces. Part of #15327 (PR 3b-2a). * fix(cli): drain the Ink TUI's held shared batches in one continuation Shared batches that settled during a model stream were resumed together when it ended, and each started its own continuation. The drain now waits for the batches it resumes, which join its queue meanwhile, so their results go out in one continuation and the submission holds the turn off Idle until then. - A quota model switch now also stops a deferred shared batch, the background-slot check still covers scheduler-run calls drained with a shared batch, and a model switch wins when stops merge. - A model-switch stop outside a Goal turn writes the results to history. - A rejected onSettled promise is logged. * fix(cli): check the Ink TUI's batch stops again when the results are sent A shared batch decided its background-slot stop when it ended, so a batch deferred again behind a new stream kept a stale stop after a slot freed. The batch now notes which executed calls launched a background agent, and the completion step checks the slots when it sends, as the current path does. - Drop the stored model-switch stop: the completion step reads the switch as it is then. - With the setting off, a quota model switch outside a Goal turn leaves history alone again. - Resume held batches one at a time in the order they settled, so their merged results go out in that order. - Check the tool name before the background registry.

Why Qwen Code?
- Agentic out of the box — Auto-Memory, Auto-Skills, SubAgents, Agent Teams, and MCP. Dynamic workflows, zero setup.
- Open-source, inside and out — The framework and the Qwen models are open-source. They evolve together. No vendor lock-in.
- Multi-protocol — Supports OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and Qwen APIs. Any third-party provider or local model (Ollama / vLLM). Switch at runtime.
- Beyond the terminal — IDE plugins, Desktop app, Web UI, SDKs, and chat integrations (Telegram / DingTalk / WeChat / Feishu).
Tip
Qwen Code is actively iterating on itself — using its own agent and models to file issues, submit PRs, review code, and run tests. Powered by the community, driven by AI.
Installation
Linux / macOS:
curl -fsSL https://qwen-code-assets.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/installation/install-qwen-standalone.sh | bash
Windows:
irm https://qwen-code-assets.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/installation/install-qwen-standalone.ps1 | iex
Restart your terminal after installation to ensure environment variables take effect.
NPM / Homebrew
NPM (requires Node.js 22+):
npm install -g @qwen-code/qwen-code@latest
Homebrew (macOS / Linux):
brew install qwen-code
Quick Start
Open a terminal in your project and start Qwen Code:
cd /path/to/your-project
qwen
Inside the session, run /auth to configure your provider and API key. Then try:
Explain this repository and show me where to start.
See the Authentication Guide and Settings Reference for detailed setup.
See the terminal interface
How to Use Qwen Code
Choose the interface that fits your workflow:
| Interface | Get started |
|---|---|
| Terminal | Run qwen in your project — see Quick Start. |
| Desktop | Download Qwen Code Desktop for macOS, Windows, and Linux. |
| Web | Run qwen serve --open to open the Web UI in your browser. (experimental) |
| Editor | Set up VS Code, Zed, or JetBrains. |
| Chat | Connect Telegram, DingTalk, WeChat, or Feishu, then run qwen channel start. |
For automation and custom integrations:
- Headless — Run
qwen -p "..."in scripts, CI/CD, or batch jobs. - SDKs — Build with TypeScript, Python, or Java.
- Daemon — Run
qwen serveto connect clients over HTTP + SSE (ACP). (experimental) Daemon guide. - Computer Use — Set up native MCP tools or Node REPL + SDK in Qwen Code, Claude Code, or Codex.
SDK example (Python)
import asyncio
from qwen_code_sdk import is_sdk_result_message, query
async def main() -> None:
result = query(
"Summarize the repository layout.",
{
"cwd": "/path/to/project",
"path_to_qwen_executable": "qwen",
},
)
async for message in result:
if is_sdk_result_message(message):
print(message["result"])
asyncio.run(main())
Daemon Mode
Run Qwen Code as a long-lived service when you want browser, editor, SDK, and automation clients to share agent sessions without each starting a separate process. The daemon provides the built-in Web Shell and an HTTP + SSE API, supports multiple workspaces, and lets clients reconnect to active sessions.
Start it in the foreground and open the Web Shell:
qwen serve --open
The default address is http://127.0.0.1:4170. To run and manage it in the background instead:
qwen daemon start
qwen daemon status
qwen daemon logs -f
qwen daemon stop
By default, the daemon listens on loopback without bearer authentication; any local process that can reach it can use the full API, including code execution. On shared or untrusted hosts, set QWEN_SERVER_TOKEN and use --require-auth. See the Daemon guide for workspaces, authentication, remote access, and the API.
Capabilities
If you know Claude Code, you already know Qwen Code — and then some. We've put significant effort into bringing Qwen Code to feature parity with Claude Code, improving both breadth and reliability across the board.

Acknowledgments
This project was originally based on Google Gemini CLI v0.8.2. We gratefully acknowledge the Gemini CLI team's excellent work. Starting from Qwen Code v0.1, we stopped syncing with upstream and began independent development as a multi-protocol, multi-platform agent framework with deep integrations for Qwen models and beyond.
