Qwen Code 0.26.4 adds independent worktrees for managed main sessions and lets embedding web-shell hosts choose workspace directories. Generated UI cards become interactive views and follow the host theme.
Review and extension workflows
Extensions gain installation and updates for unscoped npm packages. PR verification reports record model, CLI and skill versions, while an update can trigger follow-up verification. These details help identify the configuration behind a report; they do not validate the report's conclusions.
The release also bounds CI autofix takeover with a round budget and reports configuration controls that were silently dropped. Review automation limits and generated-view behavior in the environment where the agent runs.
One product, several artifacts
Desktop and TypeScript SDK publications are grouped with the CLI instead of counted separately. The later CUA-driver 0.27.0 artifact lists notarized macOS binaries and unsigned Linux and Windows builds; it is not a CLI 0.27 launch or a claim that all platforms have identical packaging. The SDK note repeats several bundled CLI versions, so this entry does not infer a unique bundle version from that ambiguous note. Nightly artifacts are excluded from the launch count.
