feat(provider-zcode): add ZCode as a provider - #33684
Z.AI coding-plan subscribers had no way to run ZCode from T3 Code — the CLI wasn't
supported as an agent, so there was no GLM/zcode entry anywhere in the product even though
the CLI ships a rich local protocol for embedding.
Adds a native ProviderAdapterV2 driver in a new packages/provider-zcode package that wraps
the ZCode CLI's app-server protocol (NDJSON JSON over stdio), discovered from the readable
shared sources shipped inside the CLI and verified end-to-end against the real binary:
session create / subscribe / send / stop / compact, streamed text and reasoning deltas,
tool-call lifecycle, native approval and question requests (option pass-through), steering,
per-turn model selection with the model's own default reasoning level, and T3 MCP server
injection at session create.
Account provisioning mirrors the desktop host: the status probe and adapter resolve the
CLI's CDN-refreshed builtin catalog, push an entitlement-ladder snapshot over provider/updateAccountConfig (with basedOnZCodeBuiltinRevision = zcode-builtin:<rev>:<sha256(catalog path)> — any other value is silently ignored), and
answer the CLI's interaction/requestProviderRuntimeHeaders before every model request by
minting a short-lived OAuth project access token (getCustomerInfo → personal project → zcode-api-key → access_tokens), cached and refreshed ahead of expiry.
The model picker is enumerated from the same catalog + entitlement ladder at probe time, with
a Reasoning select built from the catalog's modelMatch rules — new plan models appear on
provider refresh without an adapter change.
Runtime modes map onto ZCode's own enforcement (Supervised → guarded, Auto-accept edits → edit, Full access → yolo); capabilities the CLI cannot yet prove over this protocol —
rollback, fork, subagent projection, restart resume — stay off so the UI never promises them.
Sign-in stays with the CLI: run zcode login, and the probe only reads state. The CLI's agent
asks its host for provider credentials before every account-model request, so the adapter
stands in as that host: it reads the credential store the CLI already wrote on the same machine,
exchanges it for a short-lived access token through the same Z.AI endpoints the ZCode app uses,
and keeps the token in memory. The store is never written, and zcode logout/re-login applies on
the next refresh (see docs/user/providers-zcode.md#credentials). Missing-binary environments
fall back to the desktop shim at ~/.zcode/server/bin/zcode.
Verification
Live end-to-end: real GLM turns complete through the protocol (raw NDJSON transcripts in
the branch history, "pong" + model-identification turns); captures below are from the dev
server running this branch.
35 package unit tests + 7 orchestrator-level tests driving the real adapter over a scripted
connection (turn streaming, tool lifecycle, approval pass-through, interrupt, provisioning
answers); vp run check:changed fully green (format, lint, knip, typecheck ×41 packages,
tests, react compiler).
Recorded shared-scenario replay fixtures will follow as a fast-follow; the current
orchestrator coverage is frame-driven over the verified real shapes.

Model picker (Reasoning effort)
A real turn answering in-thread:
Notes for reviewers
The CLI streams assistant text as model.streaming events (not the part.* shapes in its
bundled schema docs) and requires a reasoning level on every account-model request; both are
mapped here and covered by tests.
Host-side request auth is deliberate for the app-server --stdio protocol: the CLI's agent
refuses to run a model request until its host answers with minted headers, so there is no
CLI-managed alternative on this transport. Driving zcode serve instead — where vendor code owns
the exchange, as in the OpenCode provider — is discussed in Ideas #34215.
docs/internals/adding-a-provider.md checklist followed: honest capability flags, no session
opening from status probes, catalog-side model enumeration, and a docs/user/providers-zcode.md guide.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode (account:zai-individual-coding-plan). Harness: ZCode.
T3 Code gains a native ZCode driver that wraps the ZCode CLI's
app-server protocol (NDJSON over stdio): session create/subscribe/
send/stop/compact, streaming text and reasoning deltas, tool-call
lifecycle, native approval and question requests, steering, model
selection per turn, and T3 MCP server injection at session create.
Runtime modes map onto ZCode's own enforcement (guarded/edit/yolo);
capabilities the CLI cannot yet prove — rollback, fork, subagent
projection, restart resume — stay off so the UI never promises them.
Auth is CLI-managed like the Kiro provider: the user runs
`zcode login`, and the status probe only reads the credential store.
Verified against the real app-server binary with recorded transcripts
of the session lifecycle, event streaming, and server->client request
surface; adapter behavior is covered by 6 orchestrator-level tests
driving the real adapter over a scripted connection, plus 26 package
unit tests. A completed model turn is currently blocked inside
ZCode's own standalone credential flow (project-token exchange fails
under plain `zcode -p` too), so live replay fixtures land once the
CLI supports standalone turns.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode (account:zai-individual-coding-plan).
Harness: ZCode.
…off PATH
Desktop installs ship the CLI at ~/.zcode/server/bin/zcode and often
leave it off the server process's PATH, so enabling the provider in a
dev server failed its health check with 'Failed to execute ZCode CLI
health check'. The status probe and session spawn now probe PATH
manually (resolveSpawnCommand defers to exec on POSIX) and fall back
to the desktop shim before reporting the CLI missing.
Also maps T3 runtime modes onto zcode's own enforcement at session
create (Supervised -> guarded, Auto-accept edits -> edit, Full access
-> yolo) instead of relying on the CLI default.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode (account:zai-individual-coding-plan).
Harness: ZCode.
The zcode credential store is a JSON object keyed by credential id, so
the auth probe reported unknown for every real store. Active-provider
detection now handles the object shape, keeping unauthenticated for a
readable store without an active provider.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode (account:zai-individual-coding-plan).
Harness: ZCode.
…n models
Seven protocol experiments against zcode 0.17.1 show the app-server
registry never marks pushed account models executable over NDJSON
(push accepted, refresh ok, models still absent; the CLI's own headless
runs resolve fine), so pinning a model always fails session/create.
The adapter now retries create without the pinned model when it hits
that registry error and turns the CLI's 'Select a model' failure into
an actionable message, so a future CLI fix lights the flow up without
an adapter change. Also trims the launch-command fallback comment.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode (account:zai-individual-coding-plan).
Harness: ZCode.
…t auth
The CLI's app-server registry only applies an account snapshot whose
basedOn revision hashes the injected catalog path, and asks the host for
project-token runtime headers before every account-model request. The
adapter now pushes an entitlement-ladder snapshot (setting.json OAuth
selection + decrypted credential store), creates sessions without a
pinned model, attaches the advertised default reasoning level at send,
and mints short-lived project access tokens for the runtime-headers
request, mirroring the desktop host. Verified end-to-end: a real GLM
turn completes through the protocol.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode (account:zai-individual-coding-plan).
Harness: ZCode.
Live transcripts show the CLI streams assistant text as
model.streaming {assistantMessageId, delta, kind, done} — not the
part.* shapes the shared schema advertises — and turn.completed
carries the authoritative full response. The adapter was dropping
the stream entirely, so turns completed with no visible assistant
message. Map model.streaming (text/reasoning deltas -> streamed
items) and materialize the final assistant message from the
completed payload.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode (account:zai-individual-coding-plan).
Harness: ZCode.
A server restart replays threads through session/resume, whose
subscribe snapshot also advertises the session's executable models.
Parsing it there (not only in the create result) keeps the
registry-required reasoning level attached to sends after restarts.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode (account:zai-individual-coding-plan).
Harness: ZCode.
…adder
The model picker was a hardcoded static list with no effort levels.
The status probe now enumerates models from the CLI's injected
zcode-builtin catalog filtered by the same entitlement ladder the
account push uses, attaches a Reasoning select built from the
catalog's modelMatch rules (last matching rule wins, mirroring the
runtime composition), and keeps 'ZCode default' as the plan-default
slug. New GLM models appear on provider refresh without an adapter
change. Sends prefer the user's Effort pick over slug suffixes over
advertised defaults, and the credential cipher resolves the username
via os.userInfo like the CLI instead of env names.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode (account:zai-individual-coding-plan).
Harness: ZCode.

A cache hit was accepted on family and expiry alone, so after a CLI login
switched accounts the same family kept receiving the previous account's
apiKey, apiKeyId, and accountScope until the token expired. Answers now
reread the credential store and require the scope digest to match the
cached entry; the derivation is shared with mint so the two cannot drift.
Also exports the provisioning predicate for the provider status probe.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode. Harness: ZCode.
…ials
The status probe required an oauth:active_provider marker that
provisioning never sets, so a credential object with an
individual-coding-plan selection was reported unauthenticated with a
spurious 'zcode login' instruction. Auth now derives from the same
predicate provisioning uses. Data paths also fall back to the OS home
(USERPROFILE on Windows) when HOME is unset, so the probe reads the
store ZCode actually uses.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode. Harness: ZCode.
…y platform
zcodeDataRoot returned undefined when both ZCODE_DATA_BASE_DIR and HOME
were absent (the normal Windows case), skipping catalog discovery and
the account push, so plan models went missing from the picker; it now
falls back to os.homedir(). The PATH probe split on ':' on every
platform, missing ';'-separated Windows entries and letting the desktop
shim shadow the PATH installation; it now splits on the platform
delimiter.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode. Harness: ZCode.
…uest errors
When a tool child kept stdout open after the CLI exited, the transport
never failed and an active turn could hang forever; an exit drain-grace
watcher now fails the transport independently of EOF. On POSIX,
termination skipped the SIGKILL escalation once the leader exited during
the grace window, leaving tool processes alive; the process group keeps
being probed after exit. Request failures always reported the operation
as "request" because response records carry no method; pending requests
now carry it. Error details copied up to 600 chars of raw server payload
into the message; detail is now bounded metadata and the payload lives
only in cause.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode. Harness: ZCode.
…eam handling
A session/send rejection cleared activeTurn in memory but left the
persisted turn and session running once the start-error handler stopped
the run subscriber; the error tap now records the failure and runs the
full finalizeTurn sequence first. A session/compact rejection or timeout
left the dead turn installed, blocking the thread with
previous_turn_active; it now recovers into the existing failed-item and
finalizeTurn path. interruptTurn kept the interrupted flag when
session/stop rejected, misreporting the eventual terminal; it restores
the previous flag on failure. Recovery turns (forceNewNativeThread)
reused the cached native session, sending context into the old
conversation; the cache hit and native-id fallback now bypass it.
Text and reasoning deltas of one message shared a stream item key, so
answer text streamed as reasoning; keys are per kind. The approval test
assertion consumes the respond queue instead of racing the event loop.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode. Harness: ZCode.
The ZCode terms replaced google instead of joining it, so searching
google no longer surfaced Providers (Antigravity signs in with Google).
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode. Harness: ZCode.

All review comments from @coderabbitai and @macroscopeapp are now addressed — 17 fix points (two pairs were the same defect flagged by both bots). Every behavior fix landed with a test that fails on the previous code; vp run check:changed is fully green (format, lint, knip, typecheck ×42 packages, tests, react compiler). Commit d60519a..df270b3.
adapter.ts
forceNewNativeThread now bypasses both the thread-cache hit and the cached native-session id, so recovery opens a fresh conversation instead of appending context into the old one (test: exactly one new session/create, zero session/resume).
model.streaming keys text and reasoning deltas by kind, so the two streams keep independent items and completion state instead of merging into one (test: reasoning + answer of one message produce two items).
A session/send rejection now records turn.failure and runs the full finalizeTurn sequence (identity check preserved) before the start error stops the run subscriber, so the persisted turn/session no longer stay running (test: ordered running → failed → thread idle → session error → terminal).
A session/compact rejection/timeout now recovers into the existing failed-item + finalizeTurn path instead of leaving activeTurn installed (test: failed compaction terminal, then a subsequent turn completes instead of previous_turn_active).
interruptTurn restores the previous turn.interrupted flag when session/stop rejects, so the eventual terminal reports the real outcome (test: terminal arrives completed, not interrupted).
zcodeProtocol.ts
After the CLI exits, a bounded drain-grace watcher fails the transport even when a tool child keeps stdout open, so the active turn can no longer hang forever (tests: buffered record drains during grace, transport fails at the deadline; stdout-close still reports the exit code).
On POSIX, termination keeps probing the process group after the leader exits, so surviving tool processes still get the SIGTERM→SIGKILL escalation; win32 keeps exited-leader-means-done (tests: signals delivered with leader exited + group alive; no signals when the group is empty).
PendingZcodeRequest now carries the method, so failures report the real operation instead of the generic "request" (test).
Error detail is now bounded metadata (code …, N-char payload); the raw server payload lives only in cause and never in the message (tests for object and string payloads).
status.ts
Auth status derives from the same provisioning predicate (zcodeOAuthSelectedFamilies) instead of the oauth:active_provider marker, so a plan-selected family credential no longer reports unauthenticated with a spurious zcode login warning (tests, including the bare-marker object staying signed-out).
resolveZcodeDataPath falls back to the OS home (USERPROFILE on Windows) when HOME is unset, so the probe reads the credentials ZCode actually uses (tests: USERPROFILE-only env, HOME precedence).
zcodeRuntime.ts
zcodeDataRoot falls back to os.homedir() when both ZCODE_DATA_BASE_DIR and HOME are absent/empty, so catalog discovery and the account push no longer silently skip on Windows (tests).
The PATH probe splits on the platform delimiter (; on win32), so a PATH installation wins over the desktop shim (tests, win32 + pinned-POSIX).
zcodeRequestAuth.ts
Cache hits reread the credential store and require the scope digest to match, so an account switch re-mints and a logout declines instead of serving the previous account's token; unchanged credentials (including a fresh-IV store rewrite) still hit the cache (tests).
Smaller items
The approval test now consumes takeRespond until the broker id instead of racing the event loop with a synchronous responds.find.
settingsSearch.ts keeps the google term alongside the ZCode terms; README's supported-provider sentence includes ZCode; scripts/release-smoke.ts includes packages/provider-zcode/package.json so lockfile regeneration resolves.
resolveZcodeDataPath copies the root-selection logic from zcodeDataRoot in zcodeRuntime.ts. An earlier review found a bug caused by these two copies drifting apart: the status probe missed the Windows home fallback. makeZcodeRequestAuth already derives its credentials path from zcodeDataRoot. Use the same helper here. The probe, provisioning, and request auth will then always read the same store. After this change, status.ts no longer needs its own node:os import. The test mock of node:os still applies through zcodeRuntime.ts.

@panudetjt Thanks for the detailed update and regression tests. I inspected selected fixes in the current code, including the fresh-session bypass and credential-scope cache check. I did not verify every fix or run vp run check:changed.
The last saved description check was a non-blocking warning about a missing Scope and approval section. Please check whether the current description includes it.
If you found this review helpful, would you consider giving us a shout-out on X?
The shim fallback hardcoded the bare zcode name, so on Windows with
zcode off PATH only a zcode.cmd launcher in the data root was missed and
the provider fell back to a binary that does not exist.
Model: GLM-5.3-Flash via ZCode. Harness: ZCode.

Persist the failed turn before stopping its subscriber
If session/send rejects after the running turn is stored, finalizeTurn only queues the failed snapshot. The start-error handler can interrupt the subscriber before it persists that snapshot, leaving the stored turn running. Coordinate the start-error path with ingestion so the failed turn is persisted before subscriber teardown.

Test Server 4 failed in ManagedPolicy.test.ts: ZCode was registered in BUILT_IN_DRIVERS but not in the managed policy's known drivers, so a policy listing every built-in driver was rejected ("zcode" in allowedDrivers is not a known provider). Added zcodeClient to PACKAGED_CLIENTS in apps/server/src/policy/managedProviders.ts (7915c7b).
Merged current main with a merge commit (no conflicts).
vp run check:changed passes (format, lint, knip, typecheck of 42 packages, 10 test files). Policy tests pass.

The adapter is thorough and most of the earlier bot findings are fixed. Two things still need attention before merge: runtime-mode changes may not reach ZCode, and the token-minting path runs on the serialized event loop. The way it handles credentials also needs a maintainer decision.
High: a runtime-mode change may not reach ZCode (packages/provider-zcode/src/server/adapter.ts:1729, :1761-1769) mode is only sent in session/create. supportsRuntimeModeSwitchInSession: false (:96) makes the orchestrator detach the session on thread.runtime-mode.set. The next turn then goes through registerThread, which sees the existing nativeThreadRef and calls resumeNativeSession (:1791-1796). Neither session/resume nor session/send (:1977-2001) carries a mode. So switching Full access to Supervised probably leaves the resumed session in yolo, unless ZCode re-derives the mode on its own. The comment at :1727 ("the mode is set once here") assumes every restart creates a new session. Suggested fix: pass mode on resume if the protocol accepts it, or create a fresh native session when the requested mode differs from the one the session was created with. Please add an adapter test: create in full-access, change the mode, start a turn, and assert the resume request carries guarded.
Medium: token minting blocks the session event loop (adapter.ts:1494-1527, :1628-1631; zcodeRequestAuth.ts:40, :457-537)
Every inbound record is handled one at a time under sessionEventPermit. interaction/requestProviderRuntimeHeaders awaits answerRuntimeHeaders inline. On a cache miss (the first request, then about every 8 minutes) that is three sequential HTTPS calls, each with a 15 s timeout. While they run, no streaming deltas, tool events or lifecycle records are processed, and startTurn waits on the same permit (:2003). Even a cache hit re-reads and AES-decrypts the whole credentials file on every model request (:564-565). Suggested fix: fork the answer and respond when it completes (the CLI matches the reply by id), and avoid re-reading the store on every hit, for example by checking the file's mtime first.
Medium (needs a maintainer decision): T3 decrypts ZCode's credential store and calls private Z.AI endpoints (zcodeRequestAuth.ts:57-91, :459, :508, :528-535; adapter.ts:434)
The server re-implements the CLI's fallback cipher to decrypt ~/.zcode/v2/credentials.json. It then uses the OAuth login token against getCustomerInfo, api_keys and access_tokens, presenting itself as clientType: "zcode" with a hard-coded clientVersion: "0.0.0". This differs from the "auth is CLI-managed like Kiro" framing in the description. It also puts a third-party account credential in T3's process and ties the provider to undocumented internals that can change in any CLI update. If this approach is accepted, please at least send a real version (or omit it), and say in the provider docs that T3 reads and decrypts the ZCode credential store.
Low: ZCODE_BASE_URL is always overwritten (zcodeRuntime.ts:155) zcodeRuntimeEnvironment replaces any ZCODE_BASE_URL the user set in the instance environment. Prefer environment.ZCODE_BASE_URL ?? ZCODE_BASE_URL, or document that it cannot be overridden.
Low: the docs promise forks that are disabled (docs/user/providers-zcode.md:36)
The guide says "Forking a thread creates a ZCode fork", but canForkThread and canForkFromTurn are false (adapter.ts:105-106), and the PR description says fork stays off.

session/resume carries no mode, and session/send doesn't either. Because supportsRuntimeModeSwitchInSession is false, a runtime-mode change detaches the session and the next turn comes back through this resume path. The new mode probably never reaches ZCode, so a switch from Full access to Supervised could leave the session in yolo. Could you pass mode here, or force a fresh native session when the requested mode differs from the one the session was created with? A test asserting the mode after a mode change would lock this in.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
Fixed in 10236b7. session/resume takes no mode, so the adapter now sends session/setMode immediately after the resume, and re-syncs before session/send when the tracked mode changed. The new adapter test reapplies the runtime mode when a detached session resumes creates the session in full access (mode: "yolo"), switches to supervised, reopens over the detached session, and asserts session/setMode carries guarded with no second session/create.

This runs inside handleRecord, which holds sessionEventPermit. On a cache miss, answerRuntimeHeaders makes three sequential HTTPS calls with a 15 s timeout each. Until it finishes, all streaming and tool events stall, and startTurn waits on the same permit. Consider forking the answer and calling connection.respond when it completes, since the CLI correlates the reply by id.

Fixed in 10236b7. The answer is forked into the session scope and responded when it completes, so the permit is released immediately and streaming, tool events, and startTurn keep flowing while the mint runs. The credential store is now cached by content digest instead of being re-read and decrypted on every model request; mtime was not enough here because a rewrite can land in the same clock tick, and a stale login would mint against the previous account.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
With this, the T3 server decrypts ZCode's credential store and uses the login token against private Z.AI endpoints as clientType: "zcode" (and clientVersion is hard-coded to "0.0.0" in adapter.ts:434). That differs from the "auth is CLI-managed" approach used by the other providers, so it is probably worth an explicit maintainer decision. If it stays, please note in the user docs that T3 reads and decrypts this file.

Thanks — I took the "if it stays" path rather than the CLI-managed alternative, because app-server --stdio has no CLI-managed mode: the agent asks its host for runtime headers before every account-model request and fails the turn when the host declines or omits headersApplied: true. The alternative is driving the CLI's own server (zcode serve), where vendor code owns the exchange — that is a transport rewrite, tracked in #34210.
In 10236b7: clientVersion now comes from .zcode/server/current.json via readZcodeAppVersion and the field is omitted when the version is unknown; docs/user/providers-zcode.md gained a Credentials section stating that the server reads the CLI's credential store as its host, exchanges it through the same Z.AI endpoints the app uses, keeps the token in memory, and never writes the store; and the PR description no longer claims CLI-managed auth.
…ndpoint override
A runtime-mode change detached the session but the resumed native session kept
the mode it was created with, so Full access could stay `yolo` after switching to
Supervised. The adapter now sends `session/setMode` after `session/resume` and
re-syncs before `session/send`.
`interaction/requestProviderRuntimeHeaders` was answered inline while holding the
session event permit, so three sequential HTTPS calls stalled every stream and
tool event. The answer is forked, and the credential store is cached by content
digest instead of being decrypted on every model request.
`ZCODE_BASE_URL` was always overwritten; the builtin catalog path and endpoint
hash now follow the configured origin so the override works end to end.
The token exchange reports the installed CLI version from `current.json` and
omits it when unknown, instead of a hard-coded `0.0.0`, and the provider docs
disclose that the server reads the CLI's credential store as ZCode's host.
Two more items from the review body, fixed in 10236b7:
ZCODE_BASE_URL was always overwritten. It is now genuinely overridable: the origin is normalized once and used for both zcodeRuntimeEnvironment and the builtin catalog path's endpoint hash, so resolveZcodeCatalogFiles looks in the overridden endpoint's directory instead of reporting models unavailable. Covered by zcodeRuntime.test.ts.
The docs promised forking.docs/user/providers-zcode.md now says forking is unavailable and the command is hidden.
For item 3, the host-side exchange stays and the reasoning is in the reply on zcodeRequestAuth.ts: app-server --stdio has no CLI-managed auth path, and moving to zcode serve so vendor code owns the exchange is tracked in #34210.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
Points 1, 2, 4 and 5 are fixed at 10236b7. Point 3 is closer, and the approach is still the maintainer's call.
Mode on resume: session/setMode follows session/resume (adapter.ts:1785-1788), and startTurn re-syncs when the mode changed (:2028-2036). The new test at ZcodeAdapterV2.test.ts:278 covers the resume path.
Event loop: the runtime-headers answer is forked (adapter.ts:1534-1542), and a cache hit no longer decrypts the store (zcodeRequestAuth.ts:111-112).
Credentials: the real CLI version is sent or omitted (adapter.ts:437-440, zcodeRequestAuth.ts:553), and the docs now say the server reads the CLI's store (providers-zcode.md:17-23). Whether T3 should do this at all, or move to zcode serve (#34210), is for a maintainer.
ZCODE_BASE_URL is now honoured (zcodeRuntime.ts:176).
Docs say forking is unavailable (providers-zcode.md:44).
Three smaller things from the fixes:
session/setMode only appears in this change, and the test uses the fake connection. @panudetjt, is it in the app-server protocol of the oldest CLI you support? If an older CLI rejects it, resumeNativeSession now fails and every detached thread stops reopening, which is worse than the original bug. Catching an unknown-method error there, or gating on the version, would avoid that. The startTurn re-sync at :2028 has no test yet.
zcodeRuntimeEnvironment passes the normalized origin to the CLI (zcodeRuntime.ts:176), so https://proxy.example/team/ reaches the CLI as https://proxy.example (zcodeRuntime.test.ts:316-319). If the CLI keeps the path for its requests, a path-prefixed proxy breaks. Passing the raw value through and using the origin only for the catalog hash would be safer.
With the answer forked, two header requests in the same cache-miss window both run the full exchange (zcodeRequestAuth.ts:578-605), where before the second one hit the cache. A shared in-flight mint per family would keep it to one.
Follow-up stacked PR for the same provider: panudetjt#1 (base feat/provider-zcode).
It moves the transport to zcode serve so the CLI owns credential exchange, per Discussion #34215. The diff against this branch is the daemon transport only, plus a resume fix for a model reasoning level.
Upstream PR with this branch plus the zcode serve migration from Discussion #34215: #34713.
Because main still lacks the provider, #34713 shows the combined diff; the serve delta alone is the last two commits. If this PR lands first, #34713 reduces to that delta.
Closing. We are not taking new providers from outside PRs. Adding a provider is a product decision that needs maintainer approval before any code is written, and this PR has none. See prior approval.

Problem
Z.AI coding-plan subscribers had no way to run ZCode from T3 Code — the CLI wasn't
supported as an agent, so there was no GLM/

zcode login, and the probe only reads state. The CLI's agentasks its host for provider credentials before every account-model request, so the adapter
stands in as that host: it reads the credential store the CLI already wrote on the same machine,
exchanges it for a short-lived access token through the same Z.AI endpoints the ZCode app uses,
and keeps the token in memory. The store is never written, and
