GLM-5.2

GLM · Released 2026-06-13

Highest-ranked open-source model on FrontierSWE, PostTrainBench, and SWE-Marathon. $1.40 / $4.40 per 1M tokens, MIT weights pending.

Long-horizon coding and autonomous agent model for project-scale engineering. The GLM pick when you need 1M context that stays usable across multi-day refactors, not just a large window.

4 tested benchmark families

Editor's note
GLM-5.2 is the strongest open-source coding model we track. Terminal-Bench 2.1 at 81.0 lands within 4 points of Claude Opus 4.8 (85.0), and the FrontierSWE gap to Opus is 1%. We keep the tool at solid until independent benchmarks beyond Z.ai's own reports land in the ledger. MIT weights are announced but not yet shipped — verify before pinning self-hosted workflows.
Benchmark placements

Where GLM-5.2 places on each public benchmark source that publishes a row. Rank counts every model with a latest row in the same test — not a universal quality score.
