GLM-5.1 and Qwen Code lead in coding benchmarks, agent-frameworks achieve breakthrough
Alibaba's GLM-5.1 has reached third place on Code Arena and competes with top models, while Qwen Code v0.14.x introduces orchestration features such as remote control and sub-agents. The Hermes Agent ecosystem is growing rapidly with over 50k GitHub stars and is being used by practitioners as a replacement for older Claude-based solutions.
