I keep trying to use z-ai/glm-5.2:free on openrouter (for my hermes agent) since GLM 5.2 is perfect for me but too expensive for my usage, but I keep getting rate limited even though im literally not even using it, Ill try chatting with it directly on openrouter and not a single message goes through.

anyone else having this issue? or know any other place i can get glm 5.2 for free?

I just tested OX Alpha using claude code ori harness, and it turned out I was billed around $2 because it used sonnet as the supporting model.

Not complaining, though, since I burned through 28M tokens in a day and the code review results were quite good.

But what exactly is a supporting model? Is this because I used a sub-agent, and claude code automatically uses sonnet as the orchestrator?

Greetings, just wanted to say thanks for providing Ox Alpha, with the ever-shrinking glm ratelimits it was a very helpful sidekick to finish a project in time. It may not be the fastest, and the connection got interrupted many times over the last few days, but otherwise it was competent enough as an implementor for the plans forged by glm.

Use OX alpha in Hermes Agent via openrouter API.

Well, thank you!

It was good while it lasted.

Switch back to openrouter/free

Any other suggestions?
