Zhipu AI has launched a new tool to help developers build autonomous coding assistants, heating up its rivalry with US firm Anthropic as the latter removes a hidden code tracking Chinese users of its Claude Code platform.<\/p>\n

Beijing-based Zhipu, known as Z.ai overseas and listed in Hong Kong under the name Knowledge Atlas Technology, on Wednesday introduced ZCode, a harness for its latest artificial intelligence<\/span> model, GLM-5.2<\/span>.<\/div>\n

A harness is a control system that helps large language models execute tasks autonomously, essentially allowing them to function as AI agents. Such tools have emerged as a major battleground for Chinese and US AI labs as automated coding platforms surge in popularity.<\/p>\n

To draw developers, Zhipu rolled out a range of promotions on Wednesday. These include increasing data quotas for its existing subscribers by 50 per cent and offering 5 million free tokens – the basic units of data used by AI – to new ZCode users.<\/p>\n

The company is gearing up to go head-to-head with leading US labs following the release of the powerful GLM-5.2 model last month. The launch was hailed by some in Silicon Valley as another “DeepSeek moment”<\/span> for Chinese open-source AI, in reference to the rival Chinese firm<\/span> that disrupted the global tech sector last year.<\/div>\n

“Competition and collaboration are what push all of us forward,” said Zixuan Li, Zhipu’s head of global operations, in a post on X on Thursday, adding that the company built ZCode by “standing on the shoulders of an incredible open developer community”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
