Overview

Repository for Zhipu/Z.ai's GLM-4.6V, GLM-4.5V and GLM-4.1V vision-language models, linking weights on Hugging Face and ModelScope (including FP8 and GGUF variants). It adds example code for GUI agents, a desktop chat helper, a VLM reward system, and LLaMA-Factory fine-tuning notes. The maintainers state the repo is no longer maintained as of 2026/09/02.

Who it is for: Engineers self-hosting open vision-language models

Strengths

  • Covers 106B GLM-4.6V, 9B GLM-4.6V-Flash and 9B GLM-4.1V-9B-Thinking checkpoints
  • GLM-4.6V offers native multimodal function calling and 128K context
  • Serving supported in SGLang, vLLM and Transformers; GGUF and FP8 weights available
  • Includes bounding-box grounding, GUI agent examples and Midscene.js demos

Weaknesses

  • Repository declared unmaintained as of 2026/09/02; newer work moved to the GLM-5 repo
  • No tagged releases; weights live on external hosts
  • Known issues: repetitive thinking, weak text-only QA, counting errors

What it needs

  • Needs SGLang, vLLM, Transformers, LLaMA-Factory
  • Models: GLM-4.6V, GLM-4.6V-FP8, GLM-4.6V-Flash, GLM-4.5V, GLM-4.5V-FP8

Quick answers
