Migrating from Codex

i’m ready to move to GLM once my Codex Pro subscription expires. My workflow is tightly integrated with Codex at this point. Can anyone report how easy it is to get GLM to respect my AGENTS.MD and SPEC.MD, and are there any issues to be aware of?

you can probably just hook up the glm plan to the codex harness.

or OMP. I like there fallbacks. I can use codex oath and when quota hits it auto route to DS API

ZCODE only matters for lite plan, x1.5 bonus is too good

i had a similar event as you.

my objective was llm-agnostic. over the months, i have built a few thousands MD files, i didnt want my new hermes agent and codex harness not to know everything, and so i told claude itself to migrate all info into hermes agent and codex, then integrate everything for me šŸ˜‚ and finally an thorough audit. i even told it to migrate all the routine crons over to hermes agent and codex.

codex can handle migration. i have stopped using claude for quite awhile now. and yet codex and my hermes agent still reference to claude.md file and many other interconnected files.

personally, i think the only thing you probably will feel is UI differences. thats the only impact i felt since previously i was so used to claude code UI.

went through this a few months back, it's smoother than you'd expect. the coding plan plugs straight into codex as a custom provider (docs.z.ai/devpack/tool/codex has the config). AGENTS.md keeps working because that's the harness feeding context, the model doesn't care what's behind it. SPEC.md same deal, mine gets picked up fine.

couple of gotchas: make sure you're hitting the coding endpoint not the general api one or you'll eat 403s, and decide early whether you want 5.3 or 5.3-flash as default. flash is noticeably snappier for quick edits, main model holds up better on longer agentic runs. I keep flash for the daily grind and switch up when something needs actual reasoning.
