GLM-5.2 is a model in the GLM series hosted on Hugging Face. It provides a chat template that supports configurable reasoning effort levels and tool calling through structured function signatures supplied in XML tags.
The template sets an effective reasoning effort to either high or max depending on a reasoning_effort variable. When thinking is enabled it prepends a system message stating the chosen reasoning effort. For tool use it supplies a macro that converts tool definitions into JSON objects while skipping certain keys and then embeds those within system instructions that describe how to invoke functions to assist with a user query.
The model is listed under the organization zai-org on the Hugging Face platform. Its configuration includes a pad token set to <|endoftext|. It is distributed as part of the open model repository infrastructure maintained by Hugging Face.
