Qwen / Model Studio (Alibaba Cloud)

The Model Studio provider gives access to Alibaba Cloud models including Qwen and third-party models hosted on the platform. Two billing plans are supported: Standard (pay-as-you-go) and Coding Plan (subscription).

  • Provider: modelstudio
  • Auth: MODELSTUDIO_API_KEY
  • API: OpenAI-compatible

Quick start

Standard (pay-as-you-go)

# China endpoint
openclaw onboard --auth-choice modelstudio-standard-api-key-cn

# Global/Intl endpoint
openclaw onboard --auth-choice modelstudio-standard-api-key

Coding Plan (subscription)

# China endpoint
openclaw onboard --auth-choice modelstudio-api-key-cn

# Global/Intl endpoint
openclaw onboard --auth-choice modelstudio-api-key

After onboarding, set a default model:

{
  agents: {
    defaults: {
      model: { primary: "modelstudio/qwen3.5-plus" },
    },
  },
}

Plan types and endpoints

Plan Region Auth choice Endpoint
Standard (pay-as-you-go) China modelstudio-standard-api-key-cn dashscope.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1
Standard (pay-as-you-go) Global modelstudio-standard-api-key dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1
Coding Plan (subscription) China modelstudio-api-key-cn coding.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1
Coding Plan (subscription) Global modelstudio-api-key coding-intl.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1

The provider auto-selects the endpoint based on your auth choice. You can override with a custom baseUrl in config.

Environment note

If the Gateway runs as a daemon (launchd/systemd), make sure MODELSTUDIO_API_KEY is available to that process (for example, in ~/.openclaw/.env or via env.shellEnv).
