GLM-4.6
near-frontier coding under what its badge says is mit — and the licence file itself returns 404.
reportedly close to claude sonnet 4 on real-world coding, with the one thing this ranking insists on — a readable licence — missing.
glm-4.6 was zhipu's coding-focused release and is reported at near-parity with claude sonnet 4 on cc-bench, a human-evaluated real-world coding benchmark. it's positioned for claude code and cline-style integrations, with 200k context, up from 128k in glm-4.5.
the licence is the problem for a page built on reading licence files. hugging face tags it mit and zhipu's messaging says fully open and self-hostable with no lock-in, but the raw licence file returned 404 on both paths we tried, so we could not check the text for an added clause. given that kimi k3's licence carried two commercial gates invisible from its badge, a metadata tag is not proof.
the description above is ours, condensed from the ranking. pricing moves — check it on the vendor's own page before you rely on it.

reportedly close to claude sonnet 4 on real-world coding, with the one thing this ranking insists on — a readable licence — missing.
we researched this category against vendors' own pricing pages and licence files. that is where this line comes from — not from the vendor, and not from anything they paid for.
