Qwen3-Coder-Next is an open-weight language model designed for coding agents and local development, built on Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Base with hybrid attention and MoE. It achieves over 70% on SWE-Bench Verified and comparable performance to much larger models on SWE-Bench-Pro with only 3B active parameters.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://qwen.ai/blog?id=qwen3-coder-next:

> Qwen3-Coder-Next (3B active) achieves SWE-Bench-Pro performance comparable to models with 10×–20× more active parameters.
