We look at zg (zvec-grep), the local-first search layer that Qwen Developers just open-sourced under Apache 2.0. We explain how it puts ripgrep, BM25, and vector search behind a single interface, so an agent can move from a plain-language description to an exact line span without switching tools. We cover the deliberately small MCP surface, the on-device embedding catalog, and the authorization gate that stands between local content and remote models.
