Z.ai's smallest build is 756 GB in FP8, so it needs an 8-GPU server, Z.ai's API or a provider. The main risks are no published safety work, no way to report a flaw, and thinking that can't be turned off.\n\n**MiniMax-M2.5.** MiniMax-M2.5 is a 230B mixture-of-experts model for coding and agent work, with parallel tool calls, a 196K context and parsers in vLLM and SGLang. It needs a 4-GPU server for FP8 or about 155 GB for a 4-bit build. The main risk is a licence replaced after release with a Prohibited Uses Policy while the card still says modified MIT.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### GLM-5.3\n\n1. Start it with `vllm serve zai-org/GLM-5.3 --kv-cache-dtype fp8 --tensor-parallel-size 8 --speculative-config.method mtp --speculative-config.num_speculative_tokens 5 --tool-call-parser glm47 --reasoning-parser glm47 --enable-auto-tool-choice --served-model-name glm-5.3` (vLLM 0.28.0 or later, 8xH200 or 8xH20 per vLLM's recipe)\n2. Use the glm47 tool-call and reasoning parsers in vLLM or SGLang; SGLang's cookbook says glm45 leaves the calls as plain text\n3. Pass `chat_template_kwargs: {\"reasoning_effort\": \"low\"}` for short tasks; anything other than low or high falls back to max\n4. Pass `clear_thinking: true` in chat use, since the template keeps earlier reasoning by default\n5. Don't send `enable_thinking: false`; the template ignores it and always opens a think block\n6. Validate JSON output yourself, since structured output is documented only for Z.ai's hosted API\n7. No Z.ai build fits a 128 GB machine; the full 1M context needs 8xB200 per vLLM's recipe\n\n### MiniMax-M2.5\n\n1. Start it with vLLM on 4 GPUs of 96 GB, SAFETENSORS_FAST_GPU=1 vllm serve MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.5 --trust-remote-code --tensor-parallel-size 4 --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser minimax_m2 --reasoning-parser minimax_m2_append_think\n2. In SGLang use --tool-call-parser minimax-m2 and --reasoning-parser minimax-append-think, with --trust-remote-code\n3. MiniMax's guides budget 220 GB for the weights and 240 GB per 1M tokens of KV cache\n4. On a single large-memory machine, LM Studio's catalogue entry minimax/minimax-m2.5 lists a Q4_K_M GGUF of 138 GB and an MLX 4-bit of 129 GB (Mac only), and LM Studio states 121 GB minimum memory\n5. Sample with temperature 1.0, top_p 0.95 and top_k 40, as the card recommends\n6. Budget output tokens for thinking on every turn, since the template always opens a think block\n7. Read LICENSE-MODEL, not the card's licence link, before shipping, and keep the required Notice text in every copy\n8. Without the hardware, call it through Novita or Featherless AI; MiniMax's own API retires M2.5 on 18 November 2026\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, GLM-5.3 or MiniMax-M2.5?\n\nGLM-5.3 scores 64.6 (B) on agent readiness against MiniMax-M2.5's 57.5 (C), and leads in 3 of 5 scored categories.
