Use TypeUI with Qwen Code
Follow this guide to connect Qwen Code to TypeUI while it edits UI in your project.
Open Qwen Code
Open the project where you want Qwen Code to build UI.
Add TypeUI to Qwen Code
Run this command from your project root:
qwen mcp add --transport http typeui https://mcp.typeui.sh/mcp
You can also create or update .qwen/settings.json in your project root:
{
"mcpServers": {
"typeui": {
"httpUrl": "https://mcp.typeui.sh/mcp"
}
}
}
If Qwen Code asks you to authenticate, sign in with TypeUI. You can manage MCP authentication from Qwen Code with /mcp auth.
Choose a theme
Browse the Design Skills page to compare available themes.
After you choose a theme, ask Qwen Code to use it:
I like the Bento style. Let's use it.
Start building UI
Build me a landing page.
Tell Qwen Code what to build. TypeUI helps it choose the right style and layout.
Review and refine
Run your app and review the changes. Ask Qwen Code for targeted improvements:
I don't like this pricing section, give me more variations.
TypeUI will now create three pricing variations so you can compare different layouts before choosing one.
After you choose a direction, tell Qwen Code which one to use:
I like the comparison one. Let's use it.
Once Qwen Code is connected to TypeUI, you can keep working in the same flow: choose a theme, ask for the interface you need, review the generated variations, and tell Qwen Code which direction to continue with.
