qwen-code-ci-bot · ghdev · 2026-08-09
Tongyi Qianwen's official coding tool, Qwen Code, has released version v0.21.8, introducing several engineering and performance optimizations:
- PR Review Enhancements: Restored real-time autofix support for PRs from forks by bridging review events; added repository context manifests to guide reviews; moved remote matching to a deterministic CLI subcommand, achieving up to 93.3% prompt cache hit rates for /review.
- Cache & Concurrency: Enabled compression cache sharing for OpenAI, Gemini, and other compatible providers to reuse conversation prefixes; allowed ACP agent tool calls to run concurrently within configured limits to improve fan-out operations.
- Security Fix: Patched a vulnerability where explicitly distrusted workspaces incorrectly inherited trust from parent directories.
