Summary
Qwen Code shipped v0.15.5 with command-line MCP configuration, a refreshed header when switching models, and task_stop support for background shells. The release also lands while the team continues tightening DeepSeek reasoning-content handling and long-running agent controls.
What changed
Qwen Code released v0.15.5 stable with CLI-managed MCP config, model-switch UI refresh, and background shell wiring for task_stop.
Why it matters
This turns MCP management into a first-class CLI workflow instead of a config-file chore and strengthens the lifecycle controls needed for longer-running coding agents. It keeps Qwen Code competitive with other agentic CLIs that are moving from chat surfaces toward durable task execution.
Evidence excerpt
The v0.15.5 release adds MCP config as CLI, refreshes the static header on model switch, and wires background shells into the task_stop tool.
