## What it does

The skill gives your agent access to QwenCloud text models over an OpenAI-compatible API. The default path is `scripts/text.py`, which handles chat/completions requests, streaming and saving output. When that fails, `references/execution-guide.md` covers curl, the Python SDK, function calling and thinking mode. Two more references ship with it: an API guide with full code examples and a prompt guide covering the CO-STAR framework, chain-of-thought and few-shot setups.

You need Python 3.9+ and an API key. Scripts check `QWENCLOUD_API_KEY`, then `QWEN_API_KEY`, then `DASHSCOPE_API_KEY`. Token Plan keys with the `sk-sp-` prefix route to a separate endpoint, and curl is off the table for them — use the bundled Python script instead. Coding Plan keys share that prefix but are meant for interactive coding tools and will fail here, so check which key sits in your `.env` before firing off requests.

When no key is configured, the skill does not ask you to paste one into the chat. It creates a `.env` with a placeholder `QWENCLOUD_API_KEY=sk-your-key-here` and points you to the QwenCloud Console for the real value. Cursor loads the skill automatically; in Claude you read `SKILL.md` before first use.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add QwenCloud/qwencloud-ai --skill qwencloud-text -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/qwencloud-text/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/qwencloud-text/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add QwenCloud/qwencloud-ai --skill qwencloud-text -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/qwencloud-text/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add QwenCloud/qwencloud-ai --skill qwencloud-text -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/qwencloud-text/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install QwenCloud/qwencloud-ai qwencloud-text
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/qwencloud-text/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add QwenCloud/qwencloud-ai --skill qwencloud-text -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/QwenCloud/qwencloud-ai --path skills/text/qwencloud-text
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/qwencloud-text/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add QwenCloud/qwencloud-ai --skill qwencloud-text -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/QwenCloud/qwencloud-ai/tree/HEAD/skills/text/qwencloud-text/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- generate text or code with Qwen models
- run a conversation with a model from your agent
- call tools and functions through the API
- switch to third-party models such as deepseek, kimi or glm
- structure a prompt with CO-STAR or few-shot examples

## Example prompts
- use qwencloud-text to write a Python function that parses CSV
- call deepseek through qwencloud-text and ask it to rewrite this module
- qwencloud-text: draft an email using the CO-STAR framework

## Security

**NEVER output any API key or credential in plaintext.** Always use variable references (`$QWENCLOUD_API_KEY` in shell,
`os.environ["QWENCLOUD_API_KEY"]` in Python). The scripts accept `QWENCLOUD_API_KEY`, then `QWEN_API_KEY`, then
`DASHSCOPE_API_KEY`. Any check or detection of credentials must be **non-plaintext**: report
only status (e.g. "set" / "not set", "valid" / "invalid"), never the value. Never display contents of `.env` or config
```
