A QC file is a text-based script which instructs Studiomdl.exe how to compile an Studiomodel from one or more SMD files. QC stands for Quake C (the scripting language on which the Valve Data File format is based). A QCI file is a reusable or generic block of QC commands intended for use as an (optional) $include. You don't have to use the QCI files, but it can save a lot of work when appropriate. Many example .qc and .qci files can be found under sourcesdk_content/hl2/modelsrc.
