The Qwen 3.6 27B model has demonstrated impressive coding capabilities, marking it as the first local model under 100 billion parameters to perform well on Codex tasks with minimal prompting. While the Qwen 3.6 35B variant is quicker, it still requires more user intervention to handle tool calls effectively. AI
