Open the Web Shell sidebar activity view and Add to Split View

Qwen Code v0.26.6 (no known breaking changes) adds a trusted-workspace sidebar activity view, Add to Split View, Token Usage success/speed/latency by model, a dismissible Workflow chip in the composer + menu, channel /approve|/deny for one-time tools, and headless prompt.submit hooks.

Why this loop

v0.26.6 has no known breaking changes and is mainly a Web Shell operations upgrade. Trusted-workspace conversations gain a sidebar activity view that shows approval, input, and error states, unread completions, and running work, with bulk read/archive, so the team can triage agent work without opening every session. Eligible sidebar session menus add Add to Split View for side-by-side sessions. Token Usage now reports request success rate, output speed, per-model success indicators and distinct colors, and plots per-request output speed, first-token latency, and failure details by model, so default-model choices can follow session evidence. Workflow mode moved from the composer toolbar into the + menu; a dismissible chip turns it off and warns when tools are unavailable. Channel users can /approve or /deny their own pending one-time tool permission requests in the current attended turn. Headless -p and stream-json runs can fire mod prompt.submit hooks to inspect or rewrite prompts before submission. MCP discovery keeps uniquely named tools after a name collision instead of hiding an entire server.

Proposed actions

  1. Upgrade Qwen Code to v0.26.6 from https://github.com/QwenLM/qwen-code/releases/tag/v0.26.6; on Fedora 44 or RHEL 10 x64 use the newly published desktop RPM.
  2. In Web Shell, open a trusted-workspace conversation, pin the sidebar activity view, triage approval/input/error states first, then bulk-read unread completions and bulk-archive finished running work.
  3. On an eligible sidebar session menu, choose Add to Split View and keep two related sessions (for example implement vs review) visible side by side instead of tab-switching.
  4. Open the Web Shell Token Usage panel and compare request success rate, per-request output speed, first-token latency, per-model success indicators, distinct model colors, and failure details; pin the session default to the model with the better speed and success on your workload.
  5. In GitHub/channel attended turns, resolve your own pending one-time tool permission requests with /approve or /deny in the current turn instead of waiting on another operator.
