| Qwen Code 1.0 Preview |
| Qwen Code 1.0 Preview brings together the agent harness capabilities of Qoder and Qwen Code in an open-source release. Try Qwen Code 1.0 Preview · Documentation · 中文文档. |
## 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.

## 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 serve to 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)
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.
