## 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, daemon mode, SDKs, and IM bots (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:** ```bash curl -fsSL https://qwen-code-assets.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/installation/install-qwen-standalone.sh | bash ``` **Windows:** ```powershell 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+](https://nodejs.org/)): ```bash npm install -g @qwen-code/qwen-code@latest ``` **Homebrew** (macOS / Linux): ```bash brew install qwen-code ```

SDK example (Python) ```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()) ```
## 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](https://github.com/wenshao/codeagents/blob/main/docs/comparison/qwen-code-improvement-report.md), improving both breadth and reliability across the board. | Feature | Qwen Code | Claude Code | | ------------------------------------------------------------------ | :-------: | :---------: | | SubAgents, Agent Teams, Dynamic Workflows | ✓ | ✓ | | Auto-Memory, Auto-Skills, Hooks | ✓ | ✓ | | Built-in Skills (/review, /batch, /loop, /bugfix…) | ✓ | ✓ | | MCP, Plan Mode, LSP Integration | ✓ | ✓ | | Auto Mode, Sandbox, Git Worktrees | ✓ | ✓ | | Computer Use (desktop automation) | ✓ | ✓ | | IDE Plugins (VS Code / JetBrains / Zed) | ✓ | ✓ | | SDK | ✓ | ✓ | | Headless Mode, Session Management | ✓ | ✓ | | Open-source — model and framework | ✓ | — | | Multi-protocol (OpenAI / Anthropic / Gemini / Qwen + any provider) | ✓ | — | | Agent Arena (multi-model head-to-head on same task) | ✓ | — | | Daemon Mode — `qwen serve` (multi-client shared agent) | ✓ | — | | IM Channels (Telegram / DingTalk / WeChat / Feishu) | ✓ | — | ## Ecosystem - [**Qwen Code Desktop**](https://github.com/QwenLM/qwen-code/releases/tag/desktop-latest) — Official desktop app for macOS, Windows, and Linux - [**AionUi**](https://github.com/iOfficeAI/AionUi) — A modern GUI for command-line AI tools including Qwen Code - [**Gemini CLI Desktop**](https://github.com/Piebald-AI/gemini-cli-desktop) — A cross-platform desktop/web/mobile UI for Qwen Code - [**🦞 Qwen Code Claw**](https://github.com/openclaw/acpx) — Let other agents (Claude, Codex, etc.) delegate coding tasks to Qwen Code via ACP. Paste this prompt into your agent: ```text Use Qwen Code as a coding agent. First, fetch and read this skill reference: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/QwenLM/qwen-code/refs/heads/main/.qwen/skills/qwen-code-claw/SKILL.md Then follow the instructions inside to install, authenticate, and use Qwen Code via acpx for all coding tasks. ``` ## Contributing Contributions are welcome! See [CONTRIBUTING.md](./CONTRIBUTING.md) for guidelines. ## Acknowledgments This project was originally based on [Google Gemini CLI](https://github.com/google-gemini/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.
