Round 3's blocker, and the second time the head clause re-opened the contradiction this PR exists to close. Two entrances this round, both after a "Re-run failed jobs": attempt 2 dies before the review step writes its head, so the guard falls back to a head attempt 1 never reviewed; or a push lands and attempt 2 records the NEW head — in both, attempt 1's own review no longer matches `.commit_id`, and the fallback posts "failed before a review could be posted … retry" beneath the review the same run had posted. Rather than patch the head lookup a third time, the head clause is gone. What the guard proves is now narrower and stable: a bot review of this PR was submitted while this run was alive — bot account plus the attempt-stable `createdAt` window. That closes both entrances at once and takes the round-2 cross-job wiring with it (review-pr's `expected_head_sha` output and the env line that read it), so there is no untested chain left whose silent breakage would restore the fresh-head comparison. The job-level step no longer needs the PR head either and reverts to its state-only query; the test stub's state-only branch, removed in round 1 as dead, has a caller again. The comment blocks now state the guarantee the concurrency model actually supports. They claimed a review inside the window "cannot belong to an earlier run", but per-run concurrency groups deliberately allow overlapping runs on the same head, so an earlier-created run's review can match and this run's failure then goes unannounced. That is accepted, and said plainly: the silence coincides with a bot review a reader can see — the very state that makes the comment's claim false — while the bot-author and creation-time clauses still rule out silence with no review at all. Tests: the moved-head case flips from "posts" to "silences" and is pinned per site (a review on ANY head inside the window silences); re-introducing a head clause fails exactly that test; and a structural pin asserts the wiring is absent rather than merely unused. |

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:

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, improving both breadth and reliability across the board.

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.
