I've been using Z.Ai coding plan for last few months, generally very pleasant experience. I think with GLM-4.6 they had some issues which this corrects.

Overall solid offering, they have MCP you plug into ClaudeCode or OpenCode and it just works.

I'm surprised by this; I have it also and was running through OpenCode but I gave up and moved back to Claude Code. I was not able to get it to generate any useful code for me.

How did you manage to use it? I am wondering if maybe I was using it incorrectly, or needed to include different context to get something useful out of it.

    I've been using it for the last couple months. In many cases, it was superior to Gemini 3 Pro. One thing about Claude Code, it delegates certain tasks to glm-4.5 air and that drops performance a ton. What I did is set the default models to 4.6 (now 4.7)

    Be careful this makes you run through your quota very fast (as smaller models have much higher quotas).

        ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_HAIKU_MODEL=glm-4.7
    ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_MODEL=glm-4.7
    ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL=glm-4.7
    ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL=glm-4.7

    i'm in the same boat as you. i really wanted to like OpenCode but it doesn't seem to work properly for me. i keep going back to CC.
