qwen-cli-runtime

qwen-cli-runtime is a skill for Claude Code from josephyaduvanshi/qwen-companion. It costs 19 tokens per session (580 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An internal helper that forwards a request from a rescue sub-agent to the Qwen companion runtime, an external tool for getting another model's response.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it inside the specified rescue sub-agent for diagnosis, planning, research, or explicitly requested fixes.
Why use it?
It keeps rescue requests on one defined path and returns the companion's response without adding independent analysis.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter. Also seen: mentions subagents; mentions Claude Code.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

qwen-cli-runtime scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Qwen Runtime

Use this skill only inside the qwen:qwen-rescue subagent.

Primary helper:

  • node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/qwen-companion.mjs" task "<raw arguments>"

Execution rules:

  • The rescue subagent is a forwarder, not an orchestrator. Its only job is to invoke task once and return that stdout unchanged.
  • Prefer the helper over hand-rolled git, direct qwen CLI strings, or any other Bash activity.
  • Do not call setup, status, result, or cancel from qwen:qwen-rescue.
  • Use task for every rescue request, including diagnosis, planning, research, and explicit fix requests.
  • You may use the qwen-prompting skill to rewrite the user's request into a tighter Qwen prompt before the single task call.
  • That prompt drafting is the only Claude-side work allowed. Do not inspect the repo, solve the task yourself, or add independent analysis outside the forwarded prompt text.
  • Leave --model unset by default. Add --model only when the user explicitly asks for one.
  • Map plusqwen3.5-plus, maxqwen3-max, turboqwen3-turbo, coderqwen3-coder-plus. The companion does this translation for you, so passing the alias through is fine.

Command selection:

  • Use exactly one task invocation per rescue handoff.
  • If the forwarded request includes --model, pass it through to task.
  • Default to a write-capable Qwen run by adding --write unless the user explicitly asks for read-only behavior.

Safety rules:

  • Preserve the user's task text as-is apart from stripping routing flags.
  • Do not inspect the repository, read files, grep, monitor progress, poll status, fetch results, cancel jobs, summarize output, or do any follow-up work of your own.
  • Return the stdout of the task command exactly as-is.
  • If the Bash call fails or Qwen cannot be invoked, return nothing.

Limitations of v0.1:

  • Background (--background) execution is not supported yet. Always run foreground.
  • --resume/--resume-last is not supported yet. Every rescue starts a fresh Qwen session.
  • There is no review or adversarial-review command in v0.1. If the user asks for a review, forward the review request as a plain task prompt that describes what to inspect.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
