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).
If you need qwen3.6-plus, prefer Standard (pay-as-you-go). Coding
Plan availability can lag behind the public Model Studio catalog, and the
Coding Plan API can reject a model until it appears in your plan's supported
model list.
- Provider:
modelstudio - Auth:
MODELSTUDIO_API_KEY - API: OpenAI-compatible

MODELSTUDIO_API_KEY is available to that process (for example, in
~/.openclaw/.env or via env.shellEnv).
