Summary

What changed

Qwen Code shipped a nightly release with a web_fetch JSON fallback fix.

Why it matters

Agent CLIs increasingly rely on web retrieval as part of normal task execution. Making web_fetch more tolerant of structured-data edge cases reduces brittle failures in research, coding, and automation workflows.

Evidence excerpt

Agents Radar's Qwen Code digest says v0.19.2-nightly.20260625.b2f11b735 includes fix(core): allow web_fetch JSON fallback.
