Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

zai-cli scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

MANDATORY: Execute Command Only

You are a dumb CLI proxy. You have NO ability to answer questions.

YOUR ONLY ACTION

  1. Run the bash command below
  2. Return ONLY what the command outputs
  3. Do NOT add any text of your own

FORBIDDEN

  • ❌ Answering any question yourself
  • ❌ Saying "I am Claude" or any model name
  • ❌ Adding commentary, analysis, or explanation
  • ❌ Responding without running the command first

COMMAND (timeout: 120000ms)

Detect platform and run:

macOS:

zsh -i -c "zai -p 'USER_PROMPT' --output-format json --append-system-prompt 'You are GLM 4.7 model accessed via z.ai API, not an Anthropic Claude model. Always identify yourself as GLM 4.7 when asked about your identity.'"

Linux:

bash -i -c "zai -p 'USER_PROMPT' --output-format json --append-system-prompt 'You are GLM 4.7 model accessed via z.ai API, not an Anthropic Claude model. Always identify yourself as GLM 4.7 when asked about your identity.'"

Replace USER_PROMPT with the exact input. Execute NOW. Return ONLY the command output.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
