GLM 5.2
Qwen3.5 35B A3BGLM-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.
The Qwen 3.5 native vision-language Plus model is built on a hybrid architecture that integrates linear attention mechanisms with sparse mixture-of-experts models, achieving higher inference efficiency. In multiple task evaluations, the 3.5 series has demonstrated outstanding performance comparable to current leading frontier models, with leapfrog improvements over the 3 series in both pure-text and multimodal capabilities. This model version is functionally equivalent to the snapshot model qwen3.5-plus-2026-02-15.
