DeepAgents Code — GLM-5.2 on OpenRouter

DeepAgents Code + GLM-5.2 (OpenRouter)

A ready-to-run DeepAgents Code (dcode) coding agent, pre-wired to GLM-5.2 on OpenRouter — an open-weight model that reads files, edits code, and runs shell commands for a fraction of a frontier-lab subscription. The shell tool is enabled out of the box; the only thing you bring is your key.

Quick start (after forking)

1. Add your OpenRouter key — BYOK, never snapshotted (it lives in ~/.deepagents/.env, which the template scrub drops):

   mkdir -p ~/.deepagents
   printf 'OPENROUTER_API_KEY=%s\n' "sk-or-v1-YOUR_KEY_HERE" > ~/.deepagents/.env
   chmod 600 ~/.deepagents/.env
   

   Get a key at https://openrouter.ai/keys.

2. Run the agent — GLM-5.2 is already the default model (wired in ~/.deepagents/config.toml), so just:

   dcode
   

   One-shot headless task:

   dcode -n "create a FastAPI hello-world app and run it"
   

   Explicit model form (equivalent to the default):

   dcode --model openrouter:z-ai/glm-5.2
   

Optional

• Web search: set TAVILY_API_KEY in ~/.deepagents/.env (https://tavily.com) to enable it. Without it, search is simply disabled — everything else works.

dcode is model-agnostic: swap --model for any OpenRouter / Anthropic / OpenAI / Fireworks / Baseten / local model you prefer.
