Z.ai: GLM 5.3

z-ai/glm-5.3

GLM-5.3 is a large-scale reasoning model from Z.ai, built for complex software engineering and long-horizon agent tasks. It supports text input and output with a 1M-token context window, and improves on GLM-5.2 in coding and in the balance between performance and token efficiency. Reasoning is always on and cannot be disabled. Reasoning efforts `low`, `high`, and `max` are supported; `max` is the default.
