Qwen Code ​

Alibaba's CLI — Gemini-compatible httpUrl schema

Prerequisites ​

bash
npm install -g @smithgray/usm

Configure MCP ​

Restart required. Save the config file and restart your editor for the MCP server to be picked up.

json
// ~/.qwen/mcp.json (uses mcp-remote to bridge stdio → HTTP)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "usm": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "usm", "mcp", "serve"]
    }
  }
}

Rules file ​

This editor does not support always-on rules/skills files. The spec-first workflow is enforced via the MCP tool descriptions and your prompts. See the agent setup guide for prompt templates.

Verify it's working ​

After configuring, your editor should show the USM MCP server with 18 tools:

  • Read (9): usm_list, usm_read, usm_search, usm_validate, usm_summary, usm_references, usm_get_contracts, usm_get_flows, usm_query
  • Write (9): usm_draft_feature, usm_write_feature, usm_update_feature, usm_update_feature_status, usm_report_feedback, usm_write_system, usm_write_service, usm_update_system, usm_update_service
