How this price is scoped: Read 2026-09-05 from Together's own serverless-models card (docs.together.ai/docs/serverless-models, the markdown surface the context gate also reads): zai-org/GLM-5.3 at input $1.40 / cached input $0.26 / output $4.40, context 1048575, quantization FP4. The triple is identical to Z.AI's first-party rate and to Fireworks' Standard rate for the same SKU. The 1,048,575-token window is what Together's card lists for THIS endpoint (docs/CONTEXT_WINDOW_CONVENTION.md) — it is Together's served window, not a claim read off the maker.
