Some users are impressed with ZCode’s features and pricing plan. For example:
I’m somewhat surprised that this is not open source (from what I can tell). Compare to Mimo Code.
Others are skeptical about the lack of transparency in ZCode’s pricing plan:
It’s impressive all these companies are getting away with ‘base usage allowance included’ or ‘standard limits’, layering the higher plans as a multiplier of that ‘base’ but never disclosing what it is.
ZCode’s integration with other tools and agents is also a topic of discussion:
Z.ai documents integrations with nearly all the popular CLI-based agents. If you’re already used to your TUI coding agent, you don’t need the desktop agent.
