zhipuai/glm-5.3Open WeightsFlagship GLM model for long-horizon coding, agents, and complex project delivery
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
MODEL CONTEXT PROTOCOL (MCP) READINESS
✓ GLM-5.3 natively supports OpenAI / Anthropic format tool calling and is fully compatible with MCP servers and agent loops.
MCP Context Window Recommendations
With a context capacity of 1,000,000 tokens, this model can handle extremely large MCP resource manifests, complete database schemas, and multiple active server tool definitions simultaneously without degradation.

API CALL INVOCATION EXAMPLE
// Example: Calling GLM-5.3 via OpenAI SDK
import OpenAI from "openai";
const client = new OpenAI({
apiKey: process.env.ZHIPUAI_API_KEY,
});
const response = await client.chat.completions.create({
model: "zhipuai/glm-5.3",
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello! Can you inspect MCP tools?" }],
});
console.log(response.choices[0].message.content);PRICING BY PROVIDER
Rates in USD per 1M tokens. Rates synchronized from models.dev public catalog.
This model supports prompt caching at $0.30 / 1M tokens, saving up to 75% on repetitive MCP tool definitions and system instructions.
