Qwen Code is an open-source AI coding agent that runs in a terminal and helps developers work with code through language models. It supports multiple model providers and can also be used through IDEs, desktop software, SDKs, and messaging bots.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

- NVIDIA SkillSpector warn
SkillSpector: 25 findings, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00088 | $0.14088 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00035 | $0.05635 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.02818 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.01409 |
Grade A, and why
cua-driver 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 2d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 1,070 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Qwen Cua Driver
Orchestrates cross-platform app automation via qwen-cua-driver. Whenever
a user asks to drive a native app, follow the loop in this skill
rather than calling tools ad-hoc — the snapshot-before-action
invariant is not optional and silently breaks if you skip it.
Platform-specific reading — read this first
This file is the cross-platform core: snapshot invariant, CLI vs MCP choice, tool surface naming, behavior matrix, canonical loop, pixel-click contract, common failure modes. The platform-specific material (forbidden-list, accessibility tree implementation, launch semantics, click dispatch) lives in companion files in this same directory:
- macOS — read
MACOS.md(no-foreground contract, forbiddenopen/osascript/cliclickinvocations, AXMenuBar navigation, SkyLight pixel-click dispatch). - Windows — read
WINDOWS.md(UIA tree vs AX, UWP / ApplicationFrameHost hosting, layered UIA+PostMessage click chain, Session 0 isolation, Windows-specific focus-steal vectors). - Linux — read
LINUX.md(X11 background input via AT-SPI + XSendEvent (including X11 apps under XWayland)).
Cross-cutting topics also have their own files:
BROWSER.md— exact native-window binding, explicit browser preparation, typed Chromium/Electron page tools, input trust classes, and native fallbacks for browser chrome and unsupported engines.RECORDING.md— session recording +replay_trajectory.
Use whichever combination matches the host. When in doubt, run
qwen-cua-driver doctor — it reports the platform and the right entry
point.
Start with the narrowest semantic route
Before opening or operating an application, name the desired postcondition and use the first applicable route below. Verify the result in the same domain before stopping or advancing:
- Caller-provided headless/background operation for a non-GUI outcome. Prefer an exact application API/SDK, service or database client, CLI, or filesystem operation over imitating a user. This includes batch-safe file moves, renames, copies, directory creation, archive extraction, data conversion, and process inspection. Read the resulting semantic state back; a zero exit status alone is not proof.
- Typed Cua operation for an application or window outcome. Use
set_window_framefor exact geometry,invoke_menufor a known native application-menu path, typed browser tools for supported page content, and clipboard tools for clipboard state. Verify withlist_windows,get_browser_state, orclipboard_read, respectively. - Background accessibility action. Use a fresh AX/UIA/AT-SPI target.
- Background pixel action. Use the pixels from the same state snapshot.
- Foreground delivery. Retry only the action that evidence says could not land in the background.
- Desktop fallback. Select an exact desktop target for that call only. Later calls may return to an exact window target in the same session.
What ships with it
7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

cua-driver is a skill published in the GitHub repository QwenLM/qwen-code (28,677 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 88 tokens to every session and 14,088 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
