Ask HN: Claude Code Alternative

Hey! You could try Qwen-Code. it offers 2,000 free API calls per day, which should be more than enough for most use cases. I know it has a “YOLO mode” that automatically approves all tool usage confirmations, but it would be great if it implemented more granular permission controls, similar to how Claude manages tool permissions with customizable allow/deny lists for terminal commands.
