ZCode Upgrade Adds Goal and Subagents for Autonomous Task Execution

Zhipu’s ZCode introduces Goal, Subagents, Remote Control, and Idle Tasks to enhance autonomous complex task completion. Cache reuse improvements boost effective token availability by approximately 30%.

Woofun AI reports that Zhipu has comprehensively upgraded its ZCode tool with four new features: Goal, Subagents, Remote Control, and Idle Tasks, designed to enable agents to execute complex tasks more autonomously. The Goal mode automatically decomposes tasks, modifies code, executes commands, and runs tests iteratively until objectives are met, while Subagents allow multiple specialized agents to collaborate on code analysis and modification. Remote Control permits users to manage ZCode from mobile devices via WeChat or Lark without disrupting the local computing environment, and Idle Tasks run non-urgent processes during off-peak hours without deducting from the GLM Coding Plan quota.

Additionally, improved cache reuse increases the effective token count under the plan by roughly 30%, which, combined with a 1.5x bonus quota valid until August 31, results in an overall usage capacity approaching 1.8 times the standard limit.
