# Qwen Code

![Qwen Code Screenshot](./docs/assets/qwen-screenshot.png)

Qwen Code is a command-line AI workflow tool adapted from [**Gemini CLI**](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli) (Please refer to [this document](./README.gemini.md) for more details), optimized for [Qwen3-Coder](https://github.com/QwenLM/Qwen3-Coder) models with enhanced parser support & tool support.

> [!WARNING]
> Qwen Code may issue multiple API calls per cycle, resulting in higher token usage, similar to Claude Code. We’re actively working to enhance API efficiency and improve the overall developer experience. ModelScope offers 2,000 free API calls if you are in China mainland. Please check [API config section](#api-configuration) for more details.

## Key Features

- **Code Understanding & Editing** - Query and edit large codebases beyond traditional context window limits
- **Workflow Automation** - Automate operational tasks like handling pull requests and complex rebases
- **Enhanced Parser** - Adapted parser specifically optimized for Qwen-Coder models

## Quick Start

### Prerequisites

Ensure you have [Node.js version 20](https://nodejs.org/en/download) or higher installed.

```bash
curl -qL https://www.npmjs.com/install.sh | sh
```

### Installation

```bash
npm install -g @qwen-code/qwen-code
qwen --version
```

Then run from anywhere:

```bash
qwen
```

Or you can install it from source:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/QwenLM/qwen-code.git
cd qwen-code
npm install
npm install -g .
```

### API Configuration

Set your Qwen API key (In Qwen Code project, you can also set your API key in `.env` file). the `.env` file should be placed in the root directory of your current project.

> ⚠️ **Notice:** <br>
> **If you are in mainland China, please go to https://bailian.console.aliyun.com/ or https://modelscope.cn/docs/model-service/API-Inference/intro to apply for your API key** <br>
> **If you are not in mainland China, please go to https://modelstudio.console.alibabacloud.com/ to apply for your API key**

If you are in mainland China, you can use Qwen3-Coder through the Alibaba Cloud bailian platform.

```bash
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
export OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1"
export OPENAI_MODEL="qwen3-coder-plus"
```

If you are in mainland China, ModelScope offers 2,000 free model inference API calls per day:

```bash
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
export OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://api-inference.modelscope.cn/v1"
export OPENAI_MODEL="Qwen/Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct"
```

If you are not in mainland China, you can use Qwen3-Coder through the Alibaba Cloud modelstuido platform.

```bash
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
export OPENAI_BASE_URL="https://dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1"
export OPENAI_MODEL="qwen3-coder-plus"
```

## Usage Examples

### Explore Codebases

```sh
cd your-project/
qwen
