Qwen Code를 DeepSeek API에 연결하기

Connect Qwen Code to the DeepSeek API with its built-in third-party provider — just add your API key and pick a model. This guide covers installation, configuration, troubleshooting, and low-cost coding agent workflows.

1. Install Qwen Code

• Install Node.js 20 or later.
• Install Qwen Code:

npm install -g @qwen-code/qwen-code@latest

Or via the quick-install script:

curl -fsSL https://qwen-code-assets.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/installation/install-qwen-standalone.sh | bash

Or Homebrew:

brew install qwen-code

• Verify:

qwen --version

2. Get a DeepSeek API Key

Go to the DeepSeek Platform, create an API key, and copy it.

3. Configure DeepSeek via /auth

Launch Qwen Code, then run the /auth command:

qwen

Inside the interactive session:

/auth

The /auth menu will appear. Follow these steps:

1. Select Third-party Providers
2. Select DeepSeek API Key
3. Step 1/2 — paste your DeepSeek API key and press Enter
4. Step 2/2 — confirm the model IDs: deepseek-v4-pro, deepseek-v4-flash (or edit if needed), press Enter

After confirmation, you'll see: Successfully configured DeepSeek API Key.

4. Switch to a DeepSeek Model

Run the /model command and select deepseek-v4-pro or deepseek-v4-flash:

/model

You're ready to go. Qwen Code will now use DeepSeek V4 models for coding.

Tip: Use /model to switch between models at any time. Use /auth again if you need to reconfigure your API key.
