GLM MCP

Overview

GLM MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that integrates Zhipu's GLM as a file-editing subagent for AI coding agents, offering approximately 10x cost savings compared to other solutions. It exposes GLM's functionality as tools that AI assistants can invoke directly within your workflow.

The server runs locally via the npm package glm-mcp, communicating over stdio. Installation is simple: npx -y glm-mcp. You'll need to provide your GLM_API_KEY through environment variables for authentication. The latest release is v1.3.0, distributed under the MIT license with source code available at djerok/glm-mcp on GitHub.

GLM MCP belongs in the AI & Agents category and works with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and others. If you maintain this project, claim your listing to verify ownership and keep information up to date.
