GLM Coding Plan Marks Its First Anniversary With Quota Reset Cards

## ​ Benefits ### ​ Supported Models All plans support GLM-5.3, GLM-5.3-Flash. Requests for GLM-5.2/GLM-5.1 will be automatically routed to GLM-5.3, requests for GLM-4.7 will automatically be routed to GLM-5.3-Flash. ### ​ Usage Instruction For information on Team Plan usage limits, please visit Team Plan Benefits. #### ​ Usage Credit Allowance Each plan is subject to both a 5-hour usage limit and a weekly usage limit. | Plan Type | 5-Hour Credits | Weekly Credits | --- | Lite | 2,000 | 10,000 | | Pro | 12,000 | 60,000 | | Max | 28,000 | 140,000 | Credit Reset Rules 5-hour credits: Dynamically refreshed; credit quota resets 5 hours after consumption. Weekly credits: Activated upon subscription; resets every 7 days. #### ​ Credit Calculation [...] > ## Documentation Index > > Fetch the complete documentation index at:</llms.txt> > > Use this file to discover all available pages before exploring further.

Quotas refresh every five hours, and there’s a separate weekly limit that resets every seven days from your subscription date. If you hit your five-hour limit, you wait. The system won’t pull from your separate Z.ai account balance to cover Coding Plan overages. You simply stop until the next cycle. GLM-5.2 has two reasoning modes: High and Max. High mode is faster and cheaper on quota; use it for routine edits. Max mode runs deeper reasoning passes and costs more, but it’s where the model performs best on hard problems: complex refactors, multi-step plans, and architectural decisions. Tools like Claude Code map their /effort commands to these modes directly. [...] On benchmarks, GLM-5.2 scored 81.0 on Terminal-Bench 2.1 and 62.1% on SWE-bench Pro. It trails Claude Opus 4.8 (85.0 on Terminal-Bench) by a few points and outperforms GPT-5.5 (58.6% on SWE-bench Pro). One caveat: Z.ai shipped the model without published benchmarks at launch. These scores came later from vendor data and thi

Meanwhile, GLM-5 consumption rate changed from 3x to 3x during peak hours and 2x during off-peak hours (peak hours: 14:00-18:00 UTC+8 daily). 2026/02/16: Recently discovered some changes in Kimi Code billing: [...] + If calculated by uncached input + output tokens, then weekly usage is 4M uncached input + output tokens; the 5-hour limit should still use the old calculation of 10M input + output tokens. + The purpose is that if Kimi Code is used for non-Vibe Coding scenari

## How GLM Coding Plan quota actually counts Z.ai defines one prompt as one user query, but each prompt may invoke the model 15-20 times behind the scenes. The 5-hour limit is dynamically refreshed and resets 5 hours after quota consumption. The weekly limit starts when the subscription is activated and resets every 7 days. GLM-5.2 and GLM-5-Turbo use more quota than routine models: 3x during peak hours and 2x off-peak. Z.ai lists peak hours as 14:00-18:00 UTC+8. As a limited-time benefit through the end of September, GLM-5.2 and GLM-5-Turbo only consume 1x quota off-peak. For routine edits, GLM-4.7 can preserve quota. [...] | GLM Coding Max max | $168/mo | glm-5.2, glm-5-turbo, glm-4.7, glm-4.5-air | GLM Coding Plan is limited to officially supported coding tools. Max includes up to about 1,600 prompts per 5 hours and 8,000 prompts per week, about 20x Lite usage. | [...] | Plan | Price | Included models | Usage notes | --- --- | | GLM Coding Lite lite | $18/mo | glm-5.2, glm-5-tur
