GLM-4.5-Air vs Hy-Memory-30B-A3B

GLM-4.5-Air 38

Model card 8 of 20, intended use, parameters and languages only. Training data 5, the technical report describes the sources and filtering with no cut-off. Last change 5, the weights' files date from August 2025 (Hub head a24ceef6, 11 August 2025, re-read on 4 November) and Z.ai's GitHub repository last changed on 1 February 2026, 276 days before this check, so within a year. Responsiveness 10, Z.ai answered 4 of the 14 questions, all in the first three days, recounted by script on 4 November. Version policy 5, a first release. File health 5, the config and tokenizer disagree on the context and a tokenisation report has no reply.

Hy-Memory-30B-A3B 68

Model card 8, Intended use (the write path of Mem0, MemOS and Hy-Memory), parameters (30B, about 3B active) and languages (English and Chinese, in the metadata) are there. Training data 5, A general description of the two training stages inside the harnesses, with no datasets, sizes or cut-off. Last change 20, the last commit, on 16 October 2026, added the licence and the card, 25 days before this check. Responsiveness 20, Of the 4 discussions that aren't pull requests (16 to 30 October 2026), 3 have a reply from a tencent organisation member. Version policy 5, A first release, with nothing replaced. File health 10, Config, tokenizer and template agree on the architecture, the context and the thinking levels. 8 + 5 + 20 + 20 + 5 + 10 = 68.

GLM-4.5-Air 85

Chat template 20, a Jinja file in the repository. Tool-calling format 25, Z.ai names the glm45 parser for vLLM and SGLang, says to declare tools in OpenAI style and shows calls coming back. Trained tool calling 20, one or more calls per turn. Structured output 0, documented only for Z.ai's hosted API. Reasoning control 10, enable_thinking false turns thinking off per request and the glm45 reasoning parser returns it separately. Context 10, 128K native.

Hy-Memory-30B-A3B 65

Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository. Tool-calling format 10, the card doesn't mention tools. Trained tool calling 10, the template can render tool calls, but the card presents the model as a memory writer that returns memories as text or JSON and says nothing of calling tools. Structured output 5, the card's quickstart asks for a JSON object with a memories list in the system prompt and shows nothing else, no response_format and no schema, so JSON output is shown by example without a documented way to constrain it. Reasoning control 10, the card passes reasoning_effort as no_think per request through chat_template_kwargs, and the template takes high, low or no_think. Context 10, 262,144 tokens native (max_position_embeddings in config.json). 20 + 10 + 10 + 5 + 10 + 10 = 65.

GLM-4.5-Air 70

Memory 5 of 30, Z.ai's smallest build is FP8 at 112.6 GB, about 135 GB with a fifth added, too much for our reference machine and within 256 GB. Runtimes 25 (the cap), released llama.cpp, vLLM, SGLang and Transformers run it, and Ollama 0.40.14 (2 November 2026) builds llama.cpp b11963, which has the glm4moe architecture, as kolibri-1 and occamy-1-0 are credited for Ollama's pin. Ollama and LM Studio have no library entry. Builds 10, one quantised build (FP8). Terms 15, MIT with nothing added. Download 10, no gate. Hosted 5, Z.ai and Novita serve it on Hugging Face.

Hy-Memory-30B-A3B 85

Memory 25, Tencent's own Q4_K_M GGUF is 18.24 GB, and 18.24 GB × 1.2 = 21.9 GB, which fits 24 GB but not 16 GB. Its Q3_K_M file and the two files with experts at 1 or 2 bits are below 4-bit precision and don't count. Runtimes 20, hy_v3 model code in released vLLM (HYV3ForCausalLM in the v0.33.0 registry), SGLang v0.5.23 (hunyuan_v3.py), Transformers v5.22.2 and llama.cpp b12242, 5 each. Builds 15, Tencent publishes an FP8 repository and a GGUF repository with Q4_K_M, Q6_K and Q8_0 files in its own organisation, so quantised builds at two precisions or more. Terms 15, Apache 2.0, with only a preamble naming Tencent as copyright holder above the licence text. Download 10, gated is false for the main, FP8 and GGUF repositories on 10 November 2026, so the files download with no account or terms to accept. Hosted 0, Hugging Face lists no inference provider for the model (an empty provider mapping on 10 November 2026), and the card names no API. 25 + 20 + 15 + 15 + 10 + 0 = 85.

GLM-4.5-Air 65

File safety 25, safetensors only and nothing from the repository runs. Provenance 15, the files are in the organisation Z.ai's GitHub links to, with a SHA-256 on every LFS file. Safety evaluation 10, Z.ai's own SafetyBench results in the technical report. Agent guidance 0, nothing on prompt injection, refusals or safeguards. Licence risk 15, plain MIT. Security programme 0, no security.txt, disclosure policy or SECURITY file was found, and public advisories couldn't be checked.

Hy-Memory-30B-A3B 60

File safety 25, 51 safetensors shards and no pickle or Python files. Provenance 15, files in the tencent organisation that the card's own resource list links to (10), with a SHA-256 listed for all 53 large files (5). Safety evaluation 0, no safety results on the card. Agent guidance 0, no prompt-injection guidance, instruction hierarchy, account of trained refusals or general cautions on the card. Licence risk 15, Apache 2.0 with no use policy, no field-of-use limit, no threshold and no clause letting Tencent change the terms. Security programme 5, Tencent's Security Response Center takes vulnerability reports company-wide with published reward rules, as the Hy3 listing records (5). 25 + 15 + 0 + 0 + 15 + 5 = 60.
