"With the recent surge of code-centric large language models, many developers and programmers have started to rely on them to improve productivity. Capabilities such as code suggestions, debugging, and even scaling an entire project are now possible with these tools. With technological advancements, the idea of agentic AI has been introduced to support our work. As an agentic approach can reason about tasks and decide on the best next step to reach a goal, it has become a vital tool developers can adopt today."
"The CLI tool is free to use and offers two authentication options: Qwen OAuth and an OpenAI-compatible API. The recommended method is Qwen OAuth, which we will explore in this article. Qwen OAuth provides free options, including 2000 requests per day and a rate limit of 60 requests per minute, with no token limit, which we will take advantage of."
