About GLM-5.1
GLM-5.1 is Z.ai's flagship model for long-horizon agentic coding tasks. Built on a novel GlmMoeDSA architecture with 754B total parameters (256 routed + 1 shared experts, 8+1 active per token) across 78 layers, it combines Gated DeltaNet linear attention with standard attention and sparse MoE feed-forward networks — enabling efficient inference while delivering top-tier intelligence. Achieves state-of-the-art 58.4% on SWE-Bench Pro, 63.5% on Terminal-Bench 2.0, 95.3% on AIME 2026, and 86.2% on GPQA-Diamond. Uniquely designed for 8-hour sustained autonomous execution — breaking complex engineering tasks into iterative experiment-analyze-optimize loops. Supports 200K context window and 128K max output tokens. Available via API as glm-5.1 on Z.ai and BigModel.cn. Released April 7, 2026 under MIT license.
