GLM 5.3 API

A flagship workhorse for complex software engineering and long-horizon agent tasks. It uses the same base model as GLM-5.2, with improvements driven by post-training, delivering a 50% gain on Z.ai Code Bench alongside stronger terminal-operation and vulnerability-discovery capabilities. It offers a 1M-token context window, up to 128K output, always-on reasoning with low, high, and max effort levels, function calling, and structured outputs. It currently accepts text only and is not intended for tasks requiring visual understanding.
