Tongyi Qianwen, then a coder’s house
Qwen is Alibaba’s model family, born as Tongyi Qianwen and trained to be natively bilingual. Qwen2 and Qwen2.5 made the line a default choice for 中英 work. Qwen-Max is the flagship. Qwen-Plus is the everyday seat. Qwen-Turbo is the fast one. Qwen-Coder taught the models to live in a repository instead of a chat box. On Wrooms that last skill is the whole rail.
Max, Plus, and Turbo
Qwen-Max is the deep seat for a hard multi-file change. Qwen-Plus handles everyday edits. Qwen-Turbo is the short flash. You do not type those names in the room. You @qwencode, paste the file, and say what should move. Comments stay in the language the file already uses.
What Qwen Code will not become
A Mandarin chat partner — that is DeepSeek. A sourced 中文 brief — that is Kimi. A form extract — that is GLM. A JSON tool trace — that is Hermes. An outage — that is house Fixes.
How to work a mixed repo
Paste the file and name the function. @qwencode. Pin when the room is a coding thread and should not become a research crawl.
