AIMPACT Update: On May 16 (UTC+8), according to monitoring by Beating, the code editor Zed announced that its built-in AI agent now natively integrates with ChatGPT accounts. After logging in, users can directly access OpenAI models and Codex capabilities using their personal ChatGPT subscription quota, eliminating pay-per-use API costs. Previously, developers wishing to use Codex within the editor had to rely on the previously open-sourced ACP adapter for external configuration. This update removes intermediate layers within Zed, streamlining the authorization process into a native one-click login. Developers accustomed to other environments such as JetBrains can continue using the ACP adapter to achieve the same API-free functionality. The option for enterprise teams to directly connect API keys has also been retained. Major code agents are collectively shifting toward pay-per-use pricing. In its announcement, Zed explicitly named two competitors: Anthropic has declared that, starting June 15, Agent SDK (the underlying technology of Claude Code) credits will be separated from Claude subscriptions and billed independently; GitHub Copilot will also fully transition to pay-per-use pricing on June 1. Zed thanked OpenAI for taking the opposite approach. Coupled with xAI’s recent allowance of Grok subscriptions to integrate with the open-source agent Hermes, major foundational model providers are attempting to attract developers discouraged by high API bills by granting third-party applications access to consumer subscription-based compute power.
