2026-04-07 GLM-5.1

Designed for long-horizon tasks, GLM-5.1 can work independently for up to 8 hours in a single run, enabling a full loop from planning and execution to iterative refinement and final delivery.

It demonstrates stronger engineering intelligence across autonomous planning, sustained execution, bug fixing, and strategy iteration, while achieving comprehensive capability alignment with Claude Opus 4.6. Built with multi-turn SFT, RL, and a process-quality evaluation framework, GLM-5.1 further improves stability, consistency, and tool use over extended tasks. Learn more in our documentation .*
