Z.AI

Z.AI is the API platform for GLM models. It provides REST APIs for GLM and uses API keys for authentication. Create your API key in the Z.AI console. Clawdbot uses the zai provider with a Z.AI API key.

CLI setup

openclaw-cn onboard --auth-choice zai-api-key
# or non-interactive
openclaw-cn onboard --zai-api-key "$ZAI_API_KEY"

Config snippet

{
  env: { ZAI_API_KEY: "sk-..." },
  agents: { defaults: { model: { primary: "zai/glm-5" } } }
}

Notes

• GLM models are available as zai/\<model\> (example: zai/glm-5, zai/glm-4.7).
• See /providers/glm for the model family overview.
• Z.AI uses Bearer auth with your API key.
