Description
GLM-5.3 is Z.ai’s advanced coding and agentic reasoning model built through scaled post-training on top of the GLM-5.2 base model. The release focuses on frontier coding, long-horizon software engineering, agent tasks, cyber evaluation, and reinforcement learning at scale. GLM-5.3 improves significantly over GLM-5.2 on complex coding benchmarks, real-world engineering environments, Terminal Bench 3.0, DeepSWE, Agents’ Last Exam, and Z.ai’s internal Code Bench. The model is trained on environments that resemble real professional work, including tasks involving codebases, infrastructure, documentation, compute clusters, experiments, bottleneck diagnosis, implementation, testing, and measurable optimization. Z.ai’s post-training stack includes IndexShare for efficient long-context processing, SAO for reinforcement learning on long-horizon tasks, and slime for large-scale asynchronous training. GLM-5.3 supports three thinking effort levels, including low, high, and max, with max recommended for coding tasks. The model also demonstrates emergent cyber capabilities across vulnerability discovery and exploitation benchmarks, prompting continued safety evaluation and hardening before weights are released. GLM-5.3 can be used through the GLM Coding Plan, ZCode, Claude Code, OpenCode, and other coding agent workflows. By combining stronger coding performance, long-horizon task execution, post-training scale, cyber evaluation, reasoning effort controls, and coding-agent integrations, GLM-5.3 supports advanced developer and research workflows.
Description
K2 Horizon comprises a network of six open models, including the 375B-A23B, 36B-A4B, 32B, 7B, 3.7B, and 0.9B, all engineered to excel in various domains such as reasoning, mathematics, coding, agentic tasks, and overall capabilities. These models share a unified architecture, vocabulary, training techniques, interfaces, evaluation frameworks, and deployment tools, facilitating seamless transitions between sizes and dynamic workload management. The fleet's flagship, the 375B-A23B model, is particularly adept at handling intricate reasoning, software development, research projects, and long-term agentic functions, while the 32B and 36B-A4B models focus on delivering robust local deployment solutions. Notably, the 36B-A4B model features an innovative Mixture-of-Value Attention mechanism, which merges sparse attention with Mixture-of-Experts layers, allowing it to engage approximately 4 billion parameters per token and compete closely with the performance of the denser 32B model. This architecture not only enhances flexibility but also maximizes resource efficiency across a wide range of applications.
