GLM4.7 + CC: A Cost-Effective Coding Tool
Read Full Article: GLM4.7 + CC: A Cost-Effective Coding Tool
GLM4.7 + CC is proving to be a competent tool, comparable to 4 Sonnet, and is particularly effective for projects involving both Python backend and TypeScript frontend. It successfully managed to integrate a new feature without any issues, such as the previously common problem of MCP calls getting stuck. Although there remains a significant performance gap between GLM4.7 + CC and the more advanced 4.5 Opus, the former is sufficient for regular tasks, making it a cost-effective choice at $100/month, supplemented by a $10 GitHub Copilot subscription for more complex challenges. This matters because it highlights the evolving capabilities and cost-effectiveness of AI tools in software development, allowing developers to choose solutions that best fit their needs and budgets.

Cogitator is an open-source, self-hosted runtime designed to orchestrate AI agents and LLM swarms, built with TypeScript to offer type safety and seamless web integration. It provides a universal LLM interface that supports multiple AI platforms like Ollama, vLLM, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google through a single API. The system is equipped with a DAG-based workflow engine, multi-agent swarm strategies, and sandboxed execution using Docker/WASM for secure operations. With a focus on production readiness, it utilizes Redis and Postgres for memory management and offers full observability features like OpenTelemetry and cost tracking. This matters because it aims to provide a more stable and efficient alternative to existing AI infrastructures with significantly fewer dependencies.
