Inputs & Outputs
- TextInputstring
Text prompt or question
- Image 1Inputimageoptional
Optional reference image for visual understanding. When provided, the model analyzes the image content together with the text prompt. Supports up to 4096x4096 resolution.
- Image 2Inputimageoptional
Optional second reference image. When provided alongside Image 1, the model can compare, contrast, or jointly reason over both images with the text prompt. Supports up to 4096x4096 resolution.
- TextOutputstring
Generated text response
Parameters
- max_new_tokensintegerdefault 2048range 1–8192advanced
Max new tokens (1-8192)
Maximum number of tokens the model may generate in the response. Default 2048. Lower for terse answers / cost saving; raise (up to 8192) for long-form generation. Generation also stops at natural end-of-sequence regardless of this cap.
- temperaturefloatdefault 0.7range 0–2advanced
Temperature (0-2)
Sampling temperature. 0.0 = greedy / deterministic (best for factual Q&A, OCR, code). 0.7 (default) = balanced creativity. >1.0 = more divergent / creative. Raise for brainstorming, lower for precision tasks.
- top_pfloatdefault 0.8range 0–1advanced
Top-p (nucleus)
Nucleus sampling threshold — keeps the smallest set of tokens whose cumulative probability ≥ top_p, samples from that set. 1.0 = unrestricted, 0.8-0.95 (typical defaults) = balanced. Lower values produce more focused output. Combined with top_k.
- top_kintegerdefault 20range 1–100advanced
Top-k
Top-k sampling — restricts the candidate set to the k highest-probability tokens. 50 is permissive, 20 (Qwen default) is tighter. Lower for more deterministic output, higher for variety.
- enable_thinkingbooleandefault Offoptions: On, Offadvanced
Thinking mode (On/Off)
When 'On', Qwen 3.6 runs an internal chain-of-thought before answering — better quality on multi-step reasoning, agentic coding, and complex visual analysis, at the cost of higher latency and token count. Default 'Off' for fast simple replies. Switch on for benchmarks, hard reasoning, or repository-level coding tasks.
