Qwen
Run bots on Alibaba's Qwen Code agent with Flux Router, your own model keys or a local model.
Qwen is a trademark of its owner. Murage isn't affiliated with Alibaba.
When to use it
- You like Qwen Code as an agent and want to point it at models you choose.
- You want Flux Router tiers or a local model with a full set of tools.
Install
Qwen's standalone installer doesn't need Node.js.
Step 1
Find the engine
Open SettingsModels & enginesEngines and find Qwen.
You're done when: you can see the Qwen row and its status line.
Step 2
Install it
If it says Not detected, choose Open install in Terminal. Murage opens Terminal with the right command for your computer.
On macOS and Linux:
curl -fsSL https://qwen-code-assets.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/installation/install-qwen-standalone.sh | bash
On Windows (PowerShell):
irm https://qwen-code-assets.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/installation/install-qwen-standalone.ps1 | iex
You're done when: the install command has finished without errors.
Step 3
Check again
Back in Murage, choose Check again.
You're done when: Qwen is detected.
There's no separate sign-in step in Murage. Give Qwen a model instead:
- connect Flux Router, or
- add a key in SettingsModels & engines from a provider with an OpenAI-style API (OpenAI, OpenRouter, DeepSeek, Mistral, Groq or xAI), or
- add a server under SettingsModelsLocal models.
What works
- Tools: Murage's tools, including handing work to other bots, memory search, your own MCP servers, connected apps, the built-in browser, and cloud and local computers. Control of this computer is offered when Qwen asks before each action.
- Pictures you attach go straight to the model, if the model accepts images.
- Model picking: Flux Router tiers, models from your OpenAI-style keys, and local models.
- Engine commands: type
/to see Qwen's own commands next to Murage's, once a chat has started.
What Murage changes in Qwen's settings
- Flux Router: Murage passes the Flux key to Qwen only for the turn. It never writes the key to Qwen's settings file.
- Local models: when you pick a local model, Murage adds that server to Qwen's settings file (
~/.qwen/settings.json) so Qwen can reach it. If the file has comments, isn't valid JSON or has an unexpected shape, Murage leaves it unchanged and the turn stops with a message instead.
Known limits
- No cloud catalog. No Qwen cloud catalog appears in Murage. If you have no Flux Router key, no OpenAI-style key and no local model, a Qwen bot has nothing to pick.
- Voice needs its own keys. Voice calls need Flux Router credits or your own voice keys.

Fix the entry the message names, then try again.
You see
