README

claude-glm-alias

A tiny shell alias that launches **Claude Code** wired to **GLM 5.2** through **OpenRouter** — no extra tooling, no proxy, no router. Just one function in your shell profile.

Run `claude_glm` instead of `claude`, and your whole Claude Code session (main model, sub-agents, background tasks) runs on GLM 5.2.

How it works

OpenRouter exposes an Anthropic-compatible endpoint, so Claude Code can talk to it directly. The function just points Claude Code at OpenRouter and overrides every model role to GLM 5.2:

Variable	Role
`ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL`	OpenRouter endpoint
`ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN`	your OpenRouter API key
`ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=""`	blanked, so it doesn't clash with a native Claude login
`ANTHROPIC_MODEL`	main model
`ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL`	Opus-class tasks (complex reasoning)
`ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL`	Sonnet-class tasks (general coding)
`ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_HAIKU_MODEL`	Haiku-class tasks (quick completions)
`ANTHROPIC_SMALL_FAST_MODEL`	background / fast tasks
`CLAUDE_CODE_SUBAGENT_MODEL`	sub-agents

macOS — `claude-glm.macos.zsh`

Key is read from the macOS Keychain at runtime (never stored in plaintext).

# 1) store your OpenRouter key once
security add-generic-password -a api-key -s openrouter_glm -w "sk-or-v1-..." -U

# 2) paste the function from claude-glm.macos.zsh into ~/.zshrc, then:
source ~/.zshrc

# 3) use it
claude_glm
claude_glm -p "write a function"

Windows — `claude-glm.windows.ps1`

Key is read from a user environment variable at runtime.

# 1) store your OpenRouter key once (then open a NEW window)
setx OPENROUTER_KEY "sk-or-v1-..."

# 2) paste the function from claude-glm.windows.ps1 into $PROFILE, then:
. $PROFILE

# 3) use it
claude_glm
claude_glm -p "write a function"
