Z.AI: GLM 4.6

z-ai/glm-4.6

GLM-4.6 achieves comprehensive enhancements across multiple domains, including real-world coding, long-context processing, reasoning, searching, writing, and agentic applications. Details are as follows: Longer context window: The context window has been expanded from 128K to 200K tokens, enabling the model to handle more complex agentic tasks. Superior coding performance: The model achieves higher scores on code benchmarks and demonstrates better real-world performance in applications such as Claude Code、Cline、Roo Code and Kilo Code, including improvements in generating visually polished front-end pages. Advanced reasoning: GLM-4.6 shows a clear improvement in reasoning performance and supports tool use during inference, leading to stronger overall capability. More capable agents: GLM-4.6 exhibits stronger performance in tool use and search-based agents, and integrates more effectively within agent frameworks. Refined writing: Better aligns with human preferences in style and readability, and performs more naturally in role-playing scenarios.
