ClaudeCodeGLM Supervisor

ClaudeCodeGLM Supervisor lets Codex delegate bounded implementation and review work to Claude Code while routing Claude Code to Z.AI GLM-5.2.

Codex stays responsible for planning, task design, risk control, validation, and final acceptance. Claude Code GLM-5.2 acts as a constrained worker that edits only the requested files, runs the requested checks, and returns a compact result for Codex to audit.

Install

The recommended install path is PyPI through uv.

One-off check:

uvx --from claude-glm52-supervisor claude-glm52 doctor --offline

Persistent CLI install:

uv tool install claude-glm52-supervisor
claude-glm52 setup --print

The GitHub Release installer is available for users who prefer a release-asset download. It verifies checksums before installing:

curl -fsSLO https://github.com/AkiGarage/ClaudeCodeGLM-supervisor/releases/latest/download/claude-glm52-installer.sh
bash claude-glm52-installer.sh --prefix "$HOME/.local"

Let Codex Set It Up

The fastest path is to ask Codex to do the environment checks and install steps for you. Copy the prompt in docs/codex-setup-prompt.md into a new Codex session.

The prompt tells Codex to:

• install or upgrade claude-glm52-supervisor through uv
• verify Python, Bash, Git, Claude Code, CLIProxyAPI, and optional timeout
• create the isolated Claude Code worker config directory
• avoid reading or printing secrets
• run offline and online doctor checks
• run a no-edit smoke test only when the local tools are ready
• leave a short setup report with any remaining manual steps

Requirements

Required:

• macOS or Linux shell environment
• Python 3.11 or newer
• Bash
• Git
• Claude Code CLI installed and authenticated
• CLIProxyAPI installed and running locally
• A Z.AI account/API key with GLM-5.2 access

Recommended:

• uv for install and upgrades
• rg for faster repository inspection
• GNU timeout for runaway-task guards
• a dedicated Claude Code worker config directory, usually ~/.claude-glm52-worker

Sensitive values are read from local environment or provider config at runtime. Do not commit API keys, .env files, auth tokens, provider configs, or shell history.

Setup Overview

1. Install the supervisor CLI:

   uv tool install claude-glm52-supervisor
   claude-glm52 doctor --offline
   

2. Install and authenticate Claude Code:

   claude --version
   

3. Install and run CLIProxyAPI, then expose a local Anthropic-compatible endpoint such as:

   http://127.0.0.1:8317
   

4. Configure CLIProxyAPI so the Claude Code-visible alias routes to GLM-5.2:

   claude-opus-4-6[1m] -> glm-5.2
   

5. Use a dedicated worker config directory:

   export CLAUDE_GLM52_WORKER_CONFIG_DIR="$HOME/.claude-glm52-worker"
   mkdir -p "$CLAUDE_GLM52_WORKER_CONFIG_DIR"
   

6. Run the setup guide and doctor:

   claude-glm52 setup --print
   claude-glm52 doctor
   

Basic Smoke Test

Run a no-edit review task before delegating real work:

claude-glm52-delegate \
  --role review \
  --cwd . \
  --timeout 120 \
  --retries 0 \
  --no-usage-log \
  --no-quota-snapshot \
  "Return exactly: ok. Do not edit files."

If this fails, check claude --version, confirm CLIProxyAPI is running, and run claude-glm52 doctor again.

Core Commands

Single task:

claude-glm52-delegate \
  --cwd /path/to/repo \
  --timeout 900 \
  --retries 1 \
  --prompt-file task-packet.md \
  --result-file delegate-result.json

Read-only review:

claude-glm52-delegate \
  --role review \
  --cwd /path/to/repo \
  --timeout 300 \
  --prompt-file review-packet.md \
  --result-file review-result.json

Independent batch work:

claude-glm52-batch \
  --plan-file batch-plan.json \
  --concurrency 2 \
  --result-file batch-result.json

Image-aware task:

claude-glm52-delegate \
  --cwd /path/to/repo \
  --image screenshots/error.png \
  --vision-backend mcp \
  --vision-mode auto \
  --prompt-file task-packet.md \
  --result-file delegate-result.json

The GLM-5.2 coding worker is treated as text-only. Image files are analyzed first through a lightweight Z.AI Vision MCP/OCR preflight. The extracted evidence text is injected into the task packet, while raw image summaries are not persisted in result JSON or usage logs.

Task Packet Shape

Use concise English packets unless the task itself is about Japanese text.

Role: implementation worker
Goal:
Repo/CWD:
Files likely relevant:
Allowed files:
Constraints:
Acceptance criteria:
Validation commands:
Do not:
Return:

Important constraints:

• list the files the worker may modify
• forbid broad searches from / or ~
• forbid deleting files, editing secrets, committing, pushing, and changing auth/config
• include the exact validation command when possible
• keep final worker output short; large deliverables should be written to files

Verified Capabilities

GLM-5.2 can support larger outputs at the model/API layer, but this Claude Code worker route is currently verified to a 64K Claude Code output ceiling. For a true 128K single-response output, use a separately verified direct GLM-5.2 route instead of assuming Claude Code will expose it safely.
