Pawel Huryn published a technical analysis confirming that the mysterious model stealth/ox-alpha on OpenRouter is actually a GLM model from Z.ai. Using wire fingerprinting and tokenizer analysis, the study compared outputs against reference models like GPT-5.6 Sol and DeepSeek V4-Pro to verify its origin. The remaining question is whether it is the next multimodal GLM or GLM-5.3 with vision enabled.
