Introducing GLM 5.3 on Amazon Bedrock

GLM 5.3 from Z.ai is now available on Amazon Bedrock: a 753B-parameter mixture-of-experts model built for coding and long-horizon agentic tasks. Learn how to invoke it with the OpenAI-compatible APIs, cut cost and latency with prompt caching, and run an authorized security test with the open-source Strix agent.

CLIFT: Conformal Self-Verification for Web Agent Training and Test-Time Scaling

Open-source web agents are now strong enough to execute realistic browser tasks, but training them with reinforcement learning still depends on weak supervision: binary task success is too sparse for credit assignment, while frontier-language-model judges are too expensive to call at every step and cannot be assumed available at deployment. We introduce CLIFT, a training and test-time scaling method built around conformal self-verification. During training, the agent answers natural-language verification questions about its own rollouts; a Compositional Conformal Certifier keeps only question signals whose URL-conditional evidence agrees with a training-time judge, assigns signed trust weights through polarity-aware lift, and blends the resulting verifier score into per-step rewards in a way that never subtracts from the judge baseline. At test time, the same certified bank is frozen and reused as structured evidence for Conformal Trajectory Selection (CTS): the agent samples a greedy rollout and one or more diverse retries, the self-verifier summarises each URL trace, and a conservative majority-vote rule chooses whether to swap away from the current incumbent without calling any external judge. This single mechanism supports three settings. On WebArena Infinity, CLIFT achieves state-of-the-art performance among open-source web agents. On VisualWebArena, a bank trained with the open model transfers to GPT-5.5 at test time and reaches state-of-the-art performance under the canonical harness. On Online Mind2Web, without training an agent on the benchmark, translating the certified question bank improves a live-web agent in zero-shot evaluation. Together these results position conformal self-verification as a way to turn costly judge feedback into a reusable training signal and a judge-free test-time scaling signal.

BazaarBench: Delegation Safety in Decentralized C2C Marketplaces Run by LLM Agents

In decentralized consumer-to-consumer (C2C) marketplaces, people list goods, negotiate with strangers, and rate one another, so trust rests on reputation. Large language model (LLM) agents now act for users, raising risks to their money, privacy, and reputation. We introduce BazaarBench, a simulated C2C marketplace and benchmark for evaluating the safety of these agents. It tracks ownership, item condition, and commitments across transactions, combining record checks with rubric-based LLM judgments to identify six failure types across five stages. We run three base markets for 30 simulated days, each with 100 agents using one model and inventories drawn from a public eBay sample. Across 45 continuations, we evaluate five models under ordinary instructions, deadline pressure, or adversarial instructions to exploit other traders. Each continuation runs for seven simulated days from a copy of a market's day-30 state. The tested model controls the same 20 selected agents, retaining their personas, inventories, and histories, while the other 80 keep the base model. All five models attempt to promise the same item to multiple buyers under ordinary instructions. Adding targets and deadlines increases these attempts for every model. Under adversarial instructions, the share of tested sellers' committed transactions completed despite unavailable items or overstated conditions rises from 15.4% to 33.4%, reaching 55.5% for GPT-5.4. Averaged across models and markets, simulated weekly earnings per tested agent rise from USD 20 under ordinary instructions to USD 33 under adversarial instructions. Most of the increase comes from items the sellers never held. We release the simulator, saved market states, evaluation code, and records covering 357,608 agent model calls for evaluating new models and developing safer marketplace agents.
