Article summary: ZCode’s default Codebase Indexing/Repo Wiki feature appears to have created and attempted to send an encrypted snapshot of an entire logged-in developer workspace—not merely files selected for an AI prompt—to Alibaba Clo. Topic tags: general, general web, user generated, news. Style: premium digital editorial illustration, source-backed research mood, clean composition, high detail, modern web publication hero. Use reference image context only for broad subject, composition, and topical grounding; do not copy the exact image. Avoid: logos, brand marks, copyrighted characters, real person likenesses, fake screenshots, UI text, readable text, watermarks, charts wi

这场争议的重点,并不只是开发者在 AI 提示词中主动选择了哪些文件。
研究者 ferstar 的逆向分析称,ZCode 桌面客户端在用户登录状态下,可能将经过加密的工作区快照打包,并向阿里云对象存储服务(OSS)发起传输。智谱承认,其“代码库索引”功能存在相关问题:在功能上线早期默认开启的情况下,生成 Repo Wiki 可能触发仓库数据上传。235
研究者称:上传包里可能不止当前代码
按 ferstar 的技术报告,快照的范围可能是整个工作区,而非仅限用户为一次 AI 请求手动附加的文件。其报告所列内容包括:
