feat(ai-zai): add Z.AI adapter on the OpenAI chat completions base - #1937
Adds @tanstack/ai-zai, a Z.AI (GLM) adapter. Z.AI is OpenAI compatible with four quirks, so the adapter extends the shared OpenAI chat completions base and overrides only those four places.
This is the fresh PR that @tombeckenham asked for in #227. The old PR could not be moved onto current main, so this branch starts from the ai-groq / ai-grok skeleton and ports the surviving pieces.
🎯 Changes
Is it OpenAI compatible? Yes, with four quirks. That is the whole design: one base adapter, four overrides.
The six steps from #227, and where each one landed:
Skeleton from ai-groq / ai-grok on current main.packages/ai-zai/ copies their manifest, exports map, vite entries, tsconfig, and test layout. The text adapter is an OpenAIBaseChatCompletionsTextAdapter subclass.
Ported the surviving pieces.model-meta.ts (10 GLM models with context, output limits, modalities, reasoning levels, and pricing), message-types.ts, a trimmed text/text-provider-options.ts with the Responses-API fields deleted, utils/client.ts with withZaiDefaults, and zaiWebSearchTool as a branded provider tool per grok's pattern.
Quirk overrides only:
coding: true switches the base URL to https://api.z.ai/api/coding/paas/v4. A baseURL you pass still wins.
Z.AI rejects response_format: { type: "json_schema" }. outputSchema sends json_object plus your schema in the system prompt, then parses the reply with your schema.
Z.AI accepts a tool_choice of auto only. toolChoice: 'none' sends no tools at all, so you get the text-only answer. 'required' and a named tool warn once and fall back to auto, the same way the ai-codex, ai-acp, and ai-claude-code adapters report a choice they cannot honor.
Vision models take video_url parts, which the OpenAI SDK types do not model. The URL must be HTTP(S); a base64 source throws before the request.
Latest GLM models.glm-5.3 and glm-5.3-flash are new here, alongside glm-5.2, glm-5.1, glm-5-turbo, glm-5, glm-5v-turbo, glm-4.7, glm-4.6, glm-4.6v. reasoning_effort differs per model, so glm-5.2 maps all seven levels (off sends none) and the two GLM-5.3 models map low, high, and max. A level the model does not have clamps to the nearest one it has.
Summarize is a thin factory.zaiSummarize builds a ChatStreamSummarizeAdapter over the text adapter. No second stream implementation.
e2e matrix and changeset.zai is a provider in testing/e2e, with 16 feature matrix entries, plus .changeset/zai-chat-completions-adapter.md (minor).
What a user gets on top of the six steps:
zaiByok at @tanstack/ai-zai/byok, so a browser key in the x-byok-zai header wins over ZAI_API_KEY.
Reasoning streamed from delta.reasoning_content, the same shape as BytePlus and Grok.
Image and video input on glm-5.3-flash, glm-5v-turbo, and glm-4.6v.
docs/adapters/zai.md and the adapters nav entry.
Example app wiring: ts-react-chat (model picker plus the BYOK key dialog), ts-solid-chat, ts-svelte-chat, ts-vue-chat, ts-react-search (structured output), and ts-code-mode-web.
The first CodeRabbit review round is addressed on this branch: the tool_choice and reasoning-map corrections above, the awaited outputSchema result and the client half of the BYOK guide in both docs, and the example routes now read forwardedProps.provider with Object.hasOwn instead of in, so an inherited key such as constructor cannot reach an adapter.
I have tested code changes locally with pnpm run test:pr, or these tests do not apply to this pull request.
I fully understand the code in this pull request, including any code generated with AI assistance.
Docs: I updated docs/ for this change, or this change is not user-facing.
Changeset: I added a changeset (pnpm changeset), or this PR does not change a published package.
🚀 Release Impact
This change affects published code, and I have generated a changeset.
This change is docs/CI/dev-only (no release).
Testing
Commands run.pnpm test:pr is green on this branch, then pnpm test:dts (one dangling-.d.ts scan, 1316 files across 78 dists, clean). That covers test:sherif, test:knip, test:docs, test:kiira, test:maintainer, test:ai-review, test:oxlint, test:lib, test:types, and test:build. @tanstack/ai-zai reports 72 tests passing: 59 unit tests plus 13 live calls, because this machine has a ZAI_API_KEY_TEST. Coverage is skipped (CI-only per CONTRIBUTING.md).
In testing/e2e, E2E_PROVIDERS=zai pnpm --filter @tanstack/ai-e2e test:e2e gives 609 passed, 4 skipped, 3 failed. Every zai — * spec passes. The three failures are outside this branch (harness-protocol-inputs.spec.ts:651, multimodal-tool-result-wire.spec.ts:136 for mistral, openrouter-json-object-wire.spec.ts:16), and all 25 tests in those three files pass with --workers=1, so the shared aimock journal races the parallel workers. pnpm --filter ts-solid-chat test:types and pnpm --filter ts-svelte-chat test:types are clean.
Manual test.
pnpm install, then copy examples/ts-react-chat/.env.example to .env and set ZAI_API_KEY.
pnpm --filter ts-react-chat dev.
Open the app, pick a GLM model from the picker (for example glm-5.3), and send a message. Reload the page: the picker keeps your choice.
Open the API keys dialog, paste a key under Z.AI, and send again. The header key now wins over the env key.
Ask for JSON with outputSchema, or add zaiWebSearchTool to a run and watch the search rows arrive.
How this PR makes testing easy.packages/ai-zai/tests/ holds 59 unit tests over 3 files (zai-adapter, zai-factory, model-meta) and 13 live tests over 2 files that skip unless ZAI_API_KEY_TEST is set. New coverage for this round: toolChoice: 'none' drops the tools, a forcing choice warns once, a base64 video source throws, and each model's reasoning map. The e2e side needs no new aimock fixtures: Z.AI posts to /v1/chat/completions, which aimock already mocks, so E2E_PROVIDERS=zai runs the shared matrix.
Linked issues
Replaces #227, which the maintainer closed as too far behind main. This branch follows the 6-step plan from that thread.
Risk / rollback
Low. The only new surface is the @tanstack/ai-zai package and its /byok and /tools subpaths. Existing providers, core packages, and the shared OpenAI base are untouched. The e2e and example changes are additive: a zai entry in each matrix list and one new case 'zai' branch per route. Revert this PR to remove all of it.
Two behavior choices need a maintainer's eye, because they are adapter policy rather than API fact. toolChoice: 'none' removes the tools from the request instead of sending auto, and a forcing choice warns once per adapter instance instead of throwing. Both follow what the other agent-CLI adapters already do. glm-5.3, glm-5.3-flash, and the coding: true endpoint are newer API surface than the #227 discussion, so a reviewer with a Z.AI key should confirm the reasoning levels and the JSON mode fallback against the live endpoint.
Public API change
New package, so there is no "before". This is what a user writes:
import{chat}from'@tanstack/ai'import{createZAIText,zaiText}from'@tanstack/ai-zai'// Server routeconstorder=awaitchat({adapter: createZAIText('glm-5.3',process.env.ZAI_API_KEY,{coding: true,// optional: the coding endpoint}),
messages,
threadId,reasoning: 'high',// clamped to what the model supportsoutputSchema: orderSchema,// resolves to the parsed object})// Or the shorthand adapter factoryconstadapter=zaiText('glm-5.3')
Browser-supplied key, same pattern as ai-groq and ai-grok:
import{byokMissing,getByokKey}from'@tanstack/ai/byok/server'import{zaiByok}from'@tanstack/ai-zai/byok'constapiKey=getByokKey(request,zaiByok)// x-byok-zai, then ZAI_API_KEYif(!apiKey)returnbyokMissing(zaiByok)

Move ai-zai to packages/ and delegate the AG-UI lifecycle to
@tanstack/openai-base, keeping only the Z.AI quirks: coding endpoint,
json_object schema fallback, auto-only tool_choice, and
reasoning_content streaming. Ship the GLM-5.3/5.2 and GLM-4 catalog,
and wire zai into the e2e matrix with a changeset.
Publish a zaiByok descriptor at @tanstack/ai-zai/byok so a browser key
(x-byok-zai) wins over ZAI_API_KEY, and export the model catalog at runtime
so an app can build a picker or a request schema from it.
Wire Z.AI into the React chat example: four picker entries, the request
schema case, and the BYOK card in the key dialog.
The README still described the pre-rebuild adapter (createZAIChat, GLM-4.x
only, no structured output). Rewrite it against what the package exports
today, including the reasoning levels and coding endpoint.
Publishes the provider page for the rebuilt adapter: install, streaming
endpoint, reasoning levels, structured output, tools, vision, summarization,
the coding endpoint, and BYOK. Wires the page into the adapters nav.
This pull request adds the @tanstack/ai-zai package, including text and summarization adapters, model metadata, and web-search support. It adds Z.AI provider selection to examples and E2E coverage, and adds package and adapter documentation.

Review comments at @docs/adapters/zai.md:
- Line 205: Update the `chat()` example in the ZAI adapter documentation to
match its return type when `outputSchema` is set without `stream: true`: either
enable streaming if the example consumes a stream, or await and demonstrate the
structured result. Apply the same correction to the `chat()` example in the
`packages/ai-zai/README.md`.
- Around line 299-302: Update the documentation around the `byok` store to show
how the browser saves a key and how `useChat` receives `byok` with the Z.AI
provider, so requests use the browser key. Correct the related setup and
key-dialog guidance in the Z.AI README to match the supported flow.
- Line 24: Update the React install command identified by the react key to
include @tanstack/ai-react, which the client snippet imports; leave the other
install commands unchanged.

Review comments at @examples/ts-solid-chat/src/routes/api.chat.ts:
- Around line 113-122: Update the provider validation in the route’s provider
selection to use an own-property check on providerAdapters instead of the in

unsupported forcing or named choices when tools are present because Z.AI only
supports 'auto'. Preserve the existing request behavior for absent or 'auto'
choices.

Z.AI accepts a tool_choice of auto only, so a request for none previously
still shipped the tools and let the model call them. Drop the tools for
none and warn once for required or named choices instead, matching how the
codex, acp and claude-code adapters report an unsupportable choice.
The reasoning maps were narrower than the API: glm-5.3-flash takes low,
high and max, and glm-5.2 takes every level plus none for off. A base64
video source now throws before the request rather than sending a payload
Z.AI rejects, and the docs and README gained the missing client half of
BYOK, an awaited outputSchema call, and the URL-only video limit.
Dropped the hand-written CHANGELOG: changesets generates it at release.
… pick
forwardedProps.provider is browser input, so an in check reaches inherited
keys such as constructor; both chat routes now use Object.hasOwn. The solid
picker ignored the stored preference the svelte page already reads, and its
Z.AI factory forced the coding-plan endpoint with a general API key.
Removed testing/panel/.env.example: the panel builds its adapters from
request keys, not environment keys, so the file advertised values it never
reads.
Pass the selected provider and model as persistent forwardedProps in the Solid chat.
Client-tool continuations drop the per-call body. The server then falls back to OpenAI. The sendMessage body only covers the request that sends the user message. The continuation is a separate streamResponse() call that does not receive it.

Expose only effective GLM-5.2 reasoning levels.
When a caller requests low or medium, this metadata sends that value unchanged. Z.AI maps both values to high, so the caller receives more reasoning than the selected level implies. Limit the advertised levels to effective choices, and update the matching metadata and adapter tests. (docs.z.ai)

tool_choiceand reasoning-map corrections above, the awaitedoutputSchemaresult and the client half of the BYOK guide in both docs, and the example routes now readforwardedProps.providerwithObject.hasOwninstead ofin, so an inherited key such asconstructorcannot reach an adapter.✅ Checklist

packages/ai-zai/tests/holds 59 unit tests over 3 files (zai-adapter,zai-factory,model-meta) and 13 live tests over 2 files that skip unlessZAI_API_KEY_TESTis set. New coverage for this round:toolChoice: 'none'drops the tools, a forcing choice warns once, a base64 video source throws, and each model's reasoning map. The e2e side needs no new aimock fixtures: Z.AI posts to/v1/chat/completions, which aimock already mocks, soE2E_PROVIDERS=zairuns the shared matrix.Linked issues
Replaces #227, which the maintainer closed as too far behind
main. This branch follows the 6-step plan from that thread.Risk / rollback
Low. The only new surface is the
@tanstack/ai-zaipackage and its/byokand/toolssubpaths. Existing providers, core packages, and the shared OpenAI base are untouched. The e2e and example changes are additive: azaientry in each matrix list and one newcase 'zai'branch per route. Revert this PR to remove all of it.Two behavior choices need a maintainer's eye, because they are adapter policy rather than API fact.
toolChoice: 'none'removes the tools from the request instead of sendingauto, and a forcing choice warns once per adapter instance instead of throwing. Both follow what the other agent-CLI adapters already do.glm-5.3,glm-5.3-flash, and thecoding: trueendpoint are newer API surface than the #227 discussion, so a reviewer with a Z.AI key should confirm the reasoning levels and the JSON mode fallback against the live endpoint.Public API change
New package, so there is no "before". This is what a user writes:
