What is Qwen Code?
Qwen Code is an open-source coding agent for the terminal, from Alibaba's Qwen team. Its web fetch tool requests pages from the developer's own machine, and its user agent doesn't say which AI model it runs on.

- User agent onlyQwen Code runs on its user's own machine. DevTune identifies it by user agent, and requests carrying that user agent come from that person's own network, so they usually can't be authenticated.
On your site
When it requests a page itself, often documentation a developer's coding task needs, the request carries its user agent. AI Traffic counts those page requests as answer fetches, and counts coding-agent answer fetches on their own too.
AI Traffic setup
Connect a crawler sensor (Cloudflare pull, edge middleware or a Vercel log drain) to see which pages Qwen Code requests on your site.
