ZCode

An open-source AI coding workspace that combines GLM and coding agents with desktop, browser, and terminal interfaces, including local CLI and web modes.

ZCode is an AI coding workspace for developers who want agents to work on software projects through a desktop app, browser, or terminal. It brings GLM and other coding agents into a workspace for planning, writing code, reviewing changes, and deploying projects.

Project work: Agents can inspect project files, search code, make edits, and run commands, with their actions and results visible in the workspace.
Choice of interface: Use the desktop app, a browser client, or a terminal interface to work with the agent. The command-line distribution includes both terminal and web modes that run locally without Electron.
Review and follow-up: Inspect file changes, undo edits, and ask for further changes within the same task.
Extensions: The agent supports tools and extensions, while UI plugins add capabilities within the workspace.

ZCode is open source under Apache 2.0. Desktop packaging supports macOS, Windows, and Linux, with x64 and ARM64 targets. The local command-line distribution requires Node.js and includes the agent, backend, and web client. Local interfaces don't establish that model inference runs on your hardware or that prompts stay on your machine; the desktop development setup uses production service configuration by default.
