[Which client uses DeepSeek most cost-effectively? The top spot goes to Zhipu ZCode] According to monitoring by Beating, OpenCode co-founder Dax Raad shared the client cache hit rates for DeepSeek traffic over the past 48 hours. Surprisingly, the top spot didn’t go to OpenCode itself but to Zhipu’s ZCode, with an impressive hit rate of 98.60%. OpenCode V2 achieved 97.86%, while Claude Code/CLI only managed 89.31%. Dax himself was stunned upon seeing the results, candidly saying, 'I don’t know what ZCode is, but it’s doing a great job.' DeepSeek’s cache miss input costs are approximately 50 times higher than cache hits. Based on the same token structure, ZCode’s hit rate corresponds to input costs that are only about 27% of Claude Code’s. ZCode is Zhipu’s Agentic Development Environment (ADE) designed for GLM-5.2 but also supports integration with other models. [Original link]
