Summary

Qwen Code 0.26.3 improves Generated UI state: inputs survive navigation and split-view changes. Live-view behavior after calculations applies to compatible MCP App clients, not every terminal or chat interface.

Explicit workflow behavior

Persistent Workflow mode adds controls across the CLI, SDK and ACP, including sandbox switches. Tool output keeps more context headroom before compaction. Model-alias context detection also changes; that is client handling, not the announcement of a new model.

The pull-request autofix flow stops when branch work is uncommitted or unpushed. ACP changes address daemon rewinds and subagent identity, while memory cadence remains opt-in.

The related TypeScript SDK and Desktop releases are covered here instead of counted again. Their generated changelogs include older history, so this summary does not present every listed change as new on October 28. Installing a client or choosing a workflow mode does not supply model access or a free inference allowance.
