I want to install Qwen Code, an open-source coding AI agent that runs on the terminal, editor, desktop, and browser. To install it globally using the NPM package manager, I can use the command npm install -g @qwen-code/qwen-code@latest, or on macOS and Linux systems, I can use the Homebrew package manager with the command brew install qwen-code. Once the installation is complete, I want to start the session by running the qwen command in my project folder.

Repository: https://github.com/QwenLM/qwen-code. Follow the official instructions in the README of this repository for setup and execution.

Before starting, check which OS we are on and if the necessary tools (e.g., Python, Node.js, Git, Docker) are installed. Install any missing ones step-by-step according to this system.

Create a new, empty folder to work in. Do not touch any files outside this folder and do not delete anything. Tell me what you are going to do in one sentence before running each command.

Tell me what I should see on the screen at the end of each step. If an error occurs, I will paste the error message to you exactly as it is, and we will fix it together.
