Execute prompts as the GLM seat through the shared pi-runner implementation. This replaces the previous Cline-backed shim — --provider openrouter --model z-ai/glm-5.3-flash is pinned on every invocation, so the per-provider model-id map (z-ai/glm-5.3-flash on OpenRouter vs zai/glm-5.3-flash on the cline gateway) is gone along with the mutable provider state that made it necessary.
Default Model
z-ai/glm-5.3-flash— Z.AI's GLM 5.3 Flash, pinned as--provider openrouter --model z-ai/glm-5.3-flashon every run. This is the single remaining id for the seat; override with--modelto point the GLM seat at a different OpenRouter model id.
Prerequisites
piCLI installed and inPATH(npm install -g @mariozechner/pi-coding-agent)OPENROUTER_API_KEYin the environment (or an OpenRouter credential in Pi's auth store)
Security Model
This skill delegates to pi-runner, so it has the same execution and data sharing model as the Pi wrapper — see ../pi-runner/SKILL.md. Runs are hermetic (no extensions, skills, or AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md discovery). Analysis roles (every role except implementer) default to read-only mode (only Pi's file-reading tool enabled). Pass --allow-write to opt out, or --no-tools to block tools entirely.
Shared Wrapper Reference
Supported options, roles, the --json output envelope key contract, return codes, and gotchas are identical to the shared wrapper — read shared/references/runner-common.md for the shared flags, envelope keys, return codes, and the seat-fidelity rule. The envelope is produced by pi-runner/scripts/run_pi.py with runner=glm, effective_runner=pi, effective_provider=z-ai (inferred from the z-ai/... model id); native_provider=openrouter is the serving gateway.
Usage
python3 .agents/skills/glm-runner/scripts/run_glm.py "your prompt here"
Examples
python3 .agents/skills/glm-runner/scripts/run_glm.py "Summarize the core module architecture"
python3 .agents/skills/glm-runner/scripts/run_glm.py --prompt-file /tmp/review.md --role codereviewer
python3 .agents/skills/glm-runner/scripts/run_glm.py "Read-only analysis" --restrict-tools --json
python3 .agents/skills/glm-runner/scripts/run_glm.py "Answer from the brief only" --no-tools --json
Behavior
- Delegates to the shared
pi-runnerimplementation with runner identity set toglm(the envelope reportsrunner=glm,effective_runner=pi). - Pins
--provider openrouter --model z-ai/glm-5.3-flashon every call, so the GLM seat is the model that actually answers — there is no mutable provider state that can silently reroute it. - Never falls back to another provider. A missing CLI blocks the seat explicitly (
status: seat_unavailable,return_code -2); missing credentials reportstatus: auth_missingwithauth_ok: false— this is seat fidelity, the same invariant every runner upholds: never substitute another model's answer for the GLM seat. - Preserves the shared wrapper envelope so councils can compare GLM output with other runners consistently.
Migration Note
The Cline-backed shim (and its --lane glm isolated-auth workflow) is no longer used by this skill — it now depends solely on pi and OPENROUTER_API_KEY. If other tooling still shells out to cline directly, that is unaffected by this change.
