Qwen 3.8 Max 0902 from Alibaba is now available on AI Gateway.

This is a new snapshot of Qwen 3.8 Max, with the gains concentrated in coding on larger projects, long-horizon work that runs without supervision, and agent runs. Vision handling is more accurate on charts and dense documents.

To use Qwen 3.8 Max 0902, set model to alibaba/qwen3.8-max-0902 :

The dated ID pins this snapshot, so a later release will not change what your requests run against.

To move existing traffic onto it without a code change, add a rewrite routing rule . The gateway substitutes the destination transparently, so an application that still asks for alibaba/qwen3.8-max runs on the new snapshot:

vercel ai-gateway rules add --type rewrite \

--source alibaba/qwen3.8-max \

--destination alibaba/qwen3.8-max-0902

To use it in a coding agent, see the coding agents guide , then run vercel ai-gateway coding-agents setup to connect agents like Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, Pi, and more and select alibaba/qwen3.8-max-0902…
