Use gald3r with ZCode

ZCode (zcode.z.ai) — Z.ai's free, cross-platform Agentic Development Environment built around GLM-5.2, with BYOK support for other model providers. Positioned to challenge Cursor, Claude Code, and GitHub Copilot.

Installing gald3r into a ZCode project writes the CRASH overlay this tool actually reads into .zcode/ — the same task board, bug tracker, and gald3r <verb> CLI every other supported platform gets, wired the way ZCode itself expects it. Today that's commands native, rules native, skills native, hooks not yet wired, MCP native via the gald3r engine's MCP (L2). Cheapest high-parity install: write gald3r's rule content directly into the workspace-root AGENTS.md (no import mechanism to defer to), plus the .zcode/skills/ tree for gald3r's g-skl-/SKILL.md files (drop-in, agentskills.io-compatible) and .zcode/commands/ for simple @g- prompt-file commands.

Once installed, the same .gald3r/TASKS.md task board, bug tracker, and full gald3r <verb> CLI work identically to every other supported platform — ZCode is one of 37 platforms gald3r reads and writes today. Commonly searched as Z.ai ZCode, GLM ZCode.
