Qwen3.6 is an open-weight language model from cyankiwi, listed in the AxForge catalogue. AxForge can bring it up on EU-owned hardware for you on request — with the licence handled where one is required.
About
Qwen3.6-27B [](https://chat.qwen.ai) [!Note] This repository contains model weights and configuration files for the post-trained model in the Hugging Face Transformers format. These artifacts are compatible with Hugging Face Transformers, vLLM, SGLang, KTransformers, etc. Following the February release of the Qwen3.5 series, we're pleased to share the first open-weight variant of Qwen3.6. Built on direct feedback from the community, Qwen3.6 prioritizes stability and real-world utility, offering developers a more intuitive, responsive, and genuinely productive coding experience. Qwen3.6 Highlights This release delivers substantial upgrades, particularly in - Agentic Coding: the model now handles frontend workflows and repository-level reasoning with greater fluency and precision. - Thinking Preservation: we've introduced a new option to retain reasoning context from historical messages, streamlining iterative development and reducing overhead. For more details, please refer to our blog post Qwen3.6-27B.

Benchmark Results Language SWE-Bench Series: Internal agent scaffold (bash + file-edit tools); temp=1.0, topp=0.95, 200K context window. We correct some problematic tasks in the public set of SWE-bench Pro and evaluate all baselines on the refined benchmark.<br/ Terminal-Bench 2.0: Harbor/Terminus-2 harness; 3h timeout, 32 CPU/48 GB RAM; temp=1.0, topp=0.95, topk=20, maxtokens=80K, 256K ctx; avg of 5 runs.<br/ SkillsBench: Evaluated

Using it via the API
Once AxForge deploys cyankiwi-qwen3-6 for you, it answers on the OpenAI-compatible API — the same base URL and keys as every other model. (cyankiwi-qwen3-6 below is illustrative; you get the exact model name on deployment.)
$ curl -sS https://api.axforge.ai/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $AXFORGE_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model":"cyankiwi-qwen3-6","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}'
