GLM 5.2
Kimi K2 0711GLM-5.2 is Z.ai’s flagship model for the era of long-horizon tasks. With a truly usable 1M-token context window, it can handle project-level engineering context, execute long-running tasks more reliably, follow engineering standards more consistently, and complete the full development workflow from requirements to multi-platform deployment in a single task.
Kimi-K2 is a MoE architecture foundational model with extremely powerful coding and agent capabilities, featuring a total of 1 trillion parameters and activating 32 billion parameters. In benchmark performance tests across major categories such as general knowledge reasoning, programming, mathematics, and agents, the K2 model outperforms other mainstream open-source models. The Kimi-K2 model supports a context length of 128k tokens. It does not support visual capabilities.
