How to use GLM-5.2 in Factory

Factory natively hosts Zhipu AI’s open-weight GLM models, allowing users to run GLM-5.2 or GLM-5.1 in Droids without managing infrastructure, API keys, inference endpoints, or separate billing. GLM-5.2 can be selected through the interactive `/model` command or specified in headless and CI executions with `-m glm-5.2`, and it supports Off, High, and Max reasoning levels, while GLM-5.1 supports Off and High. Both models carry a 0.55x credit multiplier, positioning them as lower-cost options for high-volume, exploratory, iterative, cleanup, and narrowly scoped coding tasks. Factory supports model-agnostic workflows, enabling users to pin GLM for deterministic runs, let Factory Router choose models automatically, or assign GLM to worker agents in Missions while reserving more capable models for validation.
