But it just works with Claude Code? They have a guide on their website.
https://docs.z.ai/devpack/tool/claude
Here's my setup. I add this to my .bashrc
export ZAI_API_KEY="your_key_here"
alias claudez='ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="$ZAI_API_KEY" ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="https://api.z.ai/api/anthropic" ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL="glm-5.2[1m]" ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL="glm-4.7" ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_HAIKU_MODEL="glm-4.7" claude'
Then I just run claudez
pro tip the same thing works with deepseek https://api-docs.deepseek.com/guides/anthropic_api
Even more pro tip: Claude Code can set this up for you haha

Sure, I'm not saying I, a software engineer, cannot do this. I'm saying it's significant onboarding friction.
Unless this were a massive differentiator, people aren't going to be "talking about it" the way GP suggests!
