Use ZVM with AI Agents

ZVM ships a Claude Code plugin that teaches coding agents to use ZVM’s current command surface and find the Zig version a repository declares.

/plugin marketplace add tristanisham/zvm
/plugin install zvm

The plugin recognizes //! zvm-lock: directives in build.zig and .minimum_zig_version in build.zig.zon. It guides agents to prefer zvm run for repository commands so they do not change your globally selected Zig version unless you ask them to.

Its command reference is generated from ZVM’s CLI definition, keeping the plugin aligned with the installed binary.
