feat(goal): make get_goal's default view a summary instead of the whole catalog (#9973)
* feat(goal): make get_goal's default view a summary instead of the whole catalog

Every get_goal read returned the entire bounded evidence catalog -- up to
100 entries with 240-byte previews -- plus the Goal snapshot, which
carries the evidence checkpoint verbatim: up to 32 claims of up to 2,000
characters each, every one of which is already in the catalog as a
`goal_checkpoint` entry with the same uuid and its own preview. A Goal
that had been running for a while paid all of that on every read. In one
session the prompt grew from 44k to 277k tokens over 27 rounds; in
another the model read the Goal 32 times in 34 minutes.

get_goal now takes `view: 'summary' | 'full'`, default summary. The
summary collapses the checkpoint's claims to a count (the catalog entries
carry their previews), keeps full previews for checkpoint entries and for
this turn's entries -- the compacted proof and the records a proposal
cites next -- and caps previews from earlier turns at 80 bytes, cut on a
code point. Every uuid is present in both views and remains valid for
update_goal, which validates references against the runtime's own
catalog, never against what the model was shown. `full` returns the
payload exactly as before.

On a steady-state fixture (32 maximal claims, a 100-entry catalog, a
16-turn lineage) the read drops from 105,317 bytes to 27,225 bytes; the
test pins a 36,000-byte ceiling and a >=3x ratio on that fixture.

Mutation probes: defaulting to `full` fails 3 tests; removing either
preview exemption fails the summary test; breaking the `full` switch
fails 2; leaving the claims uncollapsed fails 2; restored suite 39/39.

* fix(goal): share one preview byte-cap and slim the summary views (#9973)

QwenLM%2Fqwen-code | Trendshift

The open-source AI coding agent that lives in your terminal.

中文 | Deutsch | français | 日本語 | Русский | Português (Brasil) | 한국어

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:

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

qwen          # Launch interactive terminal UI
# Inside the session:
/auth         # Configure your provider and API key

See the Authentication Guide and Settings Reference for detailed setup.

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.
  • Aliyun Model Studio CLI — Official CLI for Aliyun's AI platform (bailian-cli). Extends Qwen Code with image/video generation, knowledge retrieval, app orchestration, and model deployment

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.
