I did that exact thing with GLM-5.3 from Z.ai with a chinese IP Camera. And i did not have to trick it in any way.

I'm curious, how well do z.ai reverse engineers protocols ? Is it good enough that we'll see Chinese device makers creating low cost hardware clones, that connect to western software ?

		I had it do the opposite: reverse engineer the protocol for the Eufymake E1 UV printer so that I can connect my own software to it. It did a pretty good job.

		At least Deepseek V4 Flash does it very good.
