Note. This repository contains model weights and configuration files for the post-trained model in the Hugging Face Transformers format.

These artifacts are compatible with Hugging Face Transformers, vLLM, SGLang, KTransformers, etc.

Over recent months, we have intensified our focus on developing foundation models that deliver exceptional utility and performance. Qwen3.5 represents a significant leap forward, integrating breakthroughs in multimodal learning, architectural efficiency, reinforcement learning scale, and global accessibility to empower developers and enterprises with unprecedented capability and efficiency.

Qwen3.5 Highlights#

Qwen3.5 features the following enhancement:

  • Unified Vision-Language Foundation: Early fusion training on multimodal tokens achieves cross-generational parity with Qwen3 and outperforms Qwen3-VL models across reasoning, coding, agents, and visual understanding benchmarks.
  • Efficient Hybrid Architecture: Gated Delta Networks combined with sparse Mixture-of-Experts deliver high-throughput inference with minimal latency and cost overhead.
  • Scalable RL Generalization: Reinforcement learning scaled across million-agent environments with progressively complex task distributions for robust real-world adaptability.
  • Global Linguistic Coverage: Expanded support to 201 languages and dialects, enabling inclusive, worldwide deployment with nuanced cultural and regional understanding.
  • Next-Generation Training Infrastructure: Near-100% multimodal training efficiency compared to text-only training and asynchronous RL frameworks supporting massive-scale agent scaffolds and environment orchestration.

Quickstart#

Important. Qwen3.5 models operate in thinking mode by default, generating thinking content signified by <think>\n...</think>\n\n before producing the final responses. To disable thinking content and obtain direct response, refer to the examples here.

For streamlined integration, we recommend using Qwen3.5 via APIs. Below is a guide to use Qwen3.5 via OpenAI-compatible API.

Serving Qwen3.5#

Qwen3.5 can be served via APIs with popular inference frameworks. In the following, we show example commands to launch OpenAI-Compatible API servers for Qwen3.5 models.

Important. Inference efficiency and throughput vary significantly across frameworks. We recommend using the latest framework versions to ensure optimal performance and compatibility. For production workloads or high-throughput scenarios, dedicated serving engines such as SGLang, KTransformers or vLLM are strongly recommended.

Important. The model has a default context length of 262,144 tokens. If you encounter out-of-memory (OOM) errors, consider reducing the context window. However, because Qwen3.5 leverages extended context for complex tasks, we advise maintaining a context length of at least 128K tokens to preserve thinking capabilities.

SGLang#

SGLang is a fast serving framework for large language models and vision language models. SGLang from the main branch of the open-source repository is required for Qwen3.5, which can be installed using the following command in a fresh environment:

uv pip install 'git+https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang.git#subdirectory=python&egg=sglang[all]'

See its documentation for more details.

The following will create API endpoints at http://localhost:8000/v1:

  • Standard Version: The following command can be used to create an API endpoint with maximum context length 262,144 tokens using tensor parallel on 8 GPUs. shell python -m sglang.launch_server --model-path Qwen/Qwen3.5-9B --port 8000 --tp-size 1 --mem-fraction-static 0.8 --context-length 262144 --reasoning-parser qwen3
  • Tool Use: To support tool use, you can use the following command. shell python -m sglang.launch_server --model-path Qwen/Qwen3.5-9B --port 8000 --tp-size 1 --mem-fraction-static 0.8 --context-length 262144 --reasoning-parser qwen3 --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder
  • Multi-Token Prediction (MTP): The following command is recommended for MTP: shell python -m sglang.launch_server --model-path Qwen/Qwen3.5-9B --port 8000 --tp-size 1 --mem-fraction-static 0.8 --context-length 262144 --reasoning-parser qwen3 --speculative-algo NEXTN --speculative-num-steps 3 --speculative-eagle-topk 1 --speculative-num-draft-tokens 4
vLLM#

vLLM is a high-throughput and memory-efficient inference and serving engine for LLMs. vLLM from the main branch of the open-source repository is required for Qwen3.5, which can be installed using the following command in a fresh environment:

uv pip install vllm --torch-backend=auto --extra-index-url https://wheels.vllm.ai/nightly

See its documentation for more details.

For detailed Qwen3.5 usage guide, see the vLLM Qwen3.5 recipe.

The following will create API endpoints at http://localhost:8000/v1:
