What happened
The poster calls it a Qwen 4 leak. The linked pull request in Qwen's qwen-code repo is titled "fix(core): size the qwen4 generation at 1M" and extends the context-window detector's 1M-token rules to qwen4 model names.

Why it matters
For developers and businesses building on Qwen models, this is an early and unconfirmed hint that a next generation could support 1M-token context. Teams planning long-context work should not treat it as a confirmed capability. Watch for an official announcement from Alibaba with real specifications and release timing.
