## ⚡ What It Is

AutoGLM Rumination is a **free AI agent** from Zhipu (China) launched in **March 2025**.  
It does long-form **web research** , **travel planning** , and **report generation** , rivaling paid agents like ChatGPT’s Assistant or Perplexity Pro—but costs **zero**.

Runs on **GLM-4-Air-0414** and **Z1-Air** (faster, leaner than DeepSeek R1).

You basically get an AI intern that actually works… for free.

## 🛠 Quick-Start (First 60 Seconds)

1. **Install Qingyan plugin** from Chrome Web Store (linked above).
2. Open any webpage → click Qingyan button → choose “Page Chat” or “Multi-Link Summary”.
3. Ask anything in **English** (or Chinese). Chrome’s Translate helps if needed.

Done. You now have a research bot in your sidebar.

* * *

## 💬 Copy-Paste Prompts (Shortcut Fuel)

Use these inside the plugin or on the portal (when it works):

- **Topic Brief Generator**

- **Travel Wizardry**

- **SaaS Spy Tool**

- **Multi-Page Magic**

* * *

## 🧠 Hidden Tricks (The 1% Club)

- **Double-Pass Reasoning**  
Add: “Now repeat the task and remove steps that failed second check.”  
It will re-do everything and filter by logic.

- **Auto GUI Actions**  
Say: “Sort cheapest Tokyo hotels under ₹5,000 on this page. Show me step-by-step screenshots.”  
It clicks and navigates sites using AutoGLM tools.

- **Model Steering Prompt**  
Add: “Use GLM-Z1 Air toolchain for this.”  
Nudges it to use the deeper, agent-style mode.

- **Link Pile Summarizer**  
Paste up to 10 URLs in the Qingyan sidebar.  
Ask: “Summarize across these links. Tag contradictions. Add source per claim.”

* * *

## 😬 Reality Check

- **Portal may 404 or lag** – it’s a slow rollout. Use plugin/app instead.
- **Confused UI in Chinese?** – Use browser translate or just type in English.
- **People mix this with a mental health bot.** Ignore those. Wrong “rumination.”

* * *

## 🔥 Proof It’s Legit

- Reuters confirms the full agent is **public + free** as of March 31, 2025.
- TechNode: “Multi-step research and task agent for public use.”
- GitHub confirms real plugins and tools used in the backend.
- Live plugin and Android app already working.

## 🤖 Output Example / Screenshot Placeholder

> “Research prompt: Compare Claude 3, GPT-4o, and GLM-Z1 Air.  
> Response: 2-page report with table, sources, FAQ, pros/cons list. Export as Markdown.”

* * *

## 🧯 Warnings

- Doesn’t work in all regions at all hours—expect downtime.
- No guarantee it respects private data—avoid sending logins or sensitive info.

* * *

## 📜 Compliance Caveat

Uses Zhipu’s hosted AI infra. Not GDPR/CCPA/DPDP compliant for sensitive or EU data.

* * *

## 🧃 Why This Is a Cheat Code

This isn’t just another chat window—it’s a **full-stack research agent** :

- It clicks stuff.
- It reads pages.
- It summarizes 10+ tabs.
- It formats into Markdown.
- It reruns the logic.
- And it’s free.

All you do is type in prompts like a tired toddler trying to cheat on homework—and it still works.

## 🪄 Plugin vs Portal vs App

| Feature | Qingyan Plugin (Chrome) | Portal (autoglm-research) | Android App (ZhiPuAIChat) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Always Online | ✅ Yes | ❌ Sometimes | ✅ Yes |
| Multilink Summarize | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ Not Yet |
| Agent GUI Actions | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ⚠ Some Beta |
| Export as Markdown | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | ❌ Manual |
| English Support | ✅ Yes (auto translate) | ✅ Yes | ⚠ Partial |

Use the plugin first. Use the portal for deeper formatting. Use the app if bored on a bus.

* * *

## 💀 Funny Glitches (Because Nothing’s Perfect)

- Sometimes calls a “travel plan” a **“dream path to walking.”**
- Once wrote a Markdown report and ended it with:  
_“This concludes your research. Goodbye, master.”_
- Asked for booking links, it once returned a **GitHub issue.**  
[visual irony: trip to Bali = bug fix request]

* * *

## 🧠 Who Should Use This?

- Lazy students pretending to “cite sources”
- Solo founders needing free interns who won’t complain
- SaaS reviewers building Notion dashboards
- Burnt-out Redditors planning “spontaneous” Japan trips
- Spreadsheet junkies trying to rank 40 tools

Basically, anyone with a browser and no shame.

## 🧨 Final Thought

If you’re not using this, you’re doing research the hard way—like handwriting Google search results with a quill.

This is the kind of thing you show your boss, then quietly pretend you built it.
