qwen-code

Why we included this project

Qwen Code is a coding agent that works from the command line, turning plain-language requests into file edits and shell commands in your project. It includes auto-memory, subagents, and agent teams, so it can split a large task into steps and keep context between sessions without you wiring up a pipeline by hand. You can connect it to OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or Qwen APIs, or to local models through Ollama and vLLM, which makes it a solid self-hosted alternative to commercial assistants. Both the framework and the Qwen models are open source, so there is no vendor lock-in and you can extend it. It also works outside the terminal with IDE plugins, a desktop app, and messaging bots, which suits solo developers and small teams that want more than a command-line tool.
