The CloudBase connector is now available in Zhipu ZCode.
Install one plugin in ZCode and you can operate your entire CloudBase backend in natural language — create databases, write functions, deploy sites, manage storage and authentication — without ever switching back to the cloud console.
Works out of the box
Download and open ZCode, go to "Settings" → "Plugins" in the left menu, switch to the "Developer tools" category, find cloudbase-skills (Tencent Cloud CloudBase development skills and MCP integration), and click "Install" on the right.
After installing, go back to the AI chat and start. A few ready-to-use prompts:
- "Build a WeChat mini program food-ordering system with cloud development" — set up pages, create the cloud database, write cloud functions and guide the preview.
- "Build a booking management system with user ordering and backend status changes" — model with CloudBase PostgreSQL, configure permissions, and wire up front end and back end.
- "Add phone-number login to a web app" — enable the auth method and integrate the CloudBase SDK.
Pick your client for the install steps and config:
This client ships CloudBase built in. Setup follows its own marketplace or connectors, and the site follows your login state — nothing to pick here.
Configure your AI tool to connect with CloudBase capabilities. Supports local and remote connection. See connection modes.
