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**Muse Glimmer 30B.** A dense 30B multimodal cousin for local agent and coding work with images, documented tool calls and adjustable reasoning. Meta's 17 GB GGUF fits a 24 GB card and runs in llama.cpp, Ollama, vLLM, SGLang and Transformers. The main risks are one tool call per turn, no documented JSON output and a usage policy that adds limits to Apache 2.0.\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### Muse Glimmer 30B\n\n1. Start it with `llama serve -hf meta-models/Muse-Glimmer-30B-GGUF --hf-file Muse-Glimmer-30B-KQuant-17GB-Q4_K_M.gguf -ngl 99 -c 131072 --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8080 --chat-template-kwargs '{\"reasoning_strength\":\"high\"}'` on llama.cpp b10353 or later, or `ollama run muse-glimmer` on Ollama 0.32.7 or later\n2. In vLLM pass `--tool-call-parser muse_glimmer --reasoning-parser muse_glimmer`, in SGLang `muse` for both, in ExecuTorch `--tool-parser atem`. Without them tool calls come back as plain text\n3. Set reasoning per request with `chat_template_kwargs.reasoning_strength` (low, medium, high or xhigh). llama.cpp and ExecuTorch don't read `reasoning_effort`, and ExecuTorch rejects it with a 400\n4. Expect one tool call per turn and return each result before the next. ExecuTorch's server rejects `tool_choice=\"required\"`\n5. Keep temperature 1.0, top_p 0.95 and top_k 64, don't run greedy, and never stop on `\u003c|eom|\u003e`\n6. Leave max_tokens room for reasoning, since in llama.cpp a request cut off mid-thought returns empty content with finish_reason length\n7. For images add Meta's 1.4 GB mmproj GGUF, which takes the build to about 22 GB with the runtime's fifth\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, GLM-5.3 or Muse Glimmer 30B?\n\nMuse Glimmer 30B scores 70 (BB) on agent readiness against GLM-5.3's 64.6 (B), and leads in 4 of 5 scored categories.
