Description

Aikido Altar represents a cutting-edge open-weight security framework designed to empower organizations with advanced defensive security intelligence tailored for their infrastructures. This model is particularly suited for environments requiring sovereign security where sensitive assets like source code, architectural documents, vulnerability assessments, and other confidential information must remain within the organization's confines and not be shared with external inference services. Built on the GLM-5.3 architecture, Altar employs techniques such as quantization and expert pruning to compress the model size from an extensive 1.51 TB in full precision down to a more manageable 328 GB, all while maintaining the majority of the original model's reasoning and security features. The model retains 168 out of the original 256 routed experts in each backbone expert layer and adopts a W4A16 representation, enhancing its practicality for security tasks that require handling extensive and evolving context windows. The calibration of expert selection was conducted using internal pentesting data and multilingual sources, ensuring that no client information was utilized, which upholds the integrity of cybersecurity, programming, and linguistic capabilities. This innovative approach not only streamlines deployment but also fortifies the organization's security posture against emerging threats.

Description

GLM-5.3 is Z.ai’s advanced coding and agentic reasoning model built through scaled post-training on top of the GLM-5.2 base model. The release focuses on frontier coding, long-horizon software engineering, agent tasks, cyber evaluation, and reinforcement learning at scale. GLM-5.3 improves significantly over GLM-5.2 on complex coding benchmarks, real-world engineering environments, Terminal Bench 3.0, DeepSWE, Agents’ Last Exam, and Z.ai’s internal Code Bench. The model is trained on environments that resemble real professional work, including tasks involving codebases, infrastructure, documentation, compute clusters, experiments, bottleneck diagnosis, implementation, testing, and measurable optimization. Z.ai’s post-training stack includes IndexShare for efficient long-context processing, SAO for reinforcement learning on long-horizon tasks, and slime for large-scale asynchronous training. GLM-5.3 supports three thinking effort levels, including low, high, and max, with max recommended for coding tasks. The model also demonstrates emergent cyber capabilities across vulnerability discovery and exploitation benchmarks, prompting continued safety evaluation and hardening before weights are released. GLM-5.3 can be used through the GLM Coding Plan, ZCode, Claude Code, OpenCode, and other coding agent workflows. By combining stronger coding performance, long-horizon task execution, post-training scale, cyber evaluation, reasoning effort controls, and coding-agent integrations, GLM-5.3 supports advanced developer and research workflows.
