Non-interactive mode

Qwen Code can be run in a non-interactive mode, which is useful for scripting and automation. In this mode, you pipe input to the CLI, it executes the command, and then it exits.

The following example pipes a command to Qwen Code from your terminal:

echo "What is fine tuning?" | qwen

You can also use the --prompt or -p flag:

qwen -p "What is fine tuning?"

For comprehensive documentation on headless usage, scripting, automation, and advanced examples, see the Headless Mode guide.
