The 'should handle control responses when stdin closes before replies' test armed 15 s timeouts for canUseToolCalled and inputStreamDone — both measuring the second turn, which requires a full model round-trip (API request + model thinking + tool_use response). On shared Linux CI runners the second-turn latency routinely exceeds 15 s, failing all three retry attempts. Raise both to 30 s, matching the existing firstResult and secondResult budgets, so every phase in the two-turn test carries the same headroom. Co-authored-by: Qwen Autofix <autofix@qwen-code.dev> |

The open-source AI coding agent that lives in your terminal.
中文 | Deutsch | français | 日本語 | Русский | Português (Brasil)
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.

print(message["result"])
asyncio.run(main())
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.
