GLM 4.7 or Grok 4.20 Multi-Agent: which to pick
Only GLM 4.7 has a coding score, 55.1 on the Vibe Coding Index; Grok 4.20 Multi-Agent has none, so the two cannot be ranked on coding.
Pick Grok 4.20 Multi-Agent for a larger context window (2M against 205K tokens).
No benchmark has tested both yet. GLM 4.7 has results on LMArena WebDev, AA Coding Index and LiveCodeBench (Vals AI); Grok 4.20 Multi-Agent has none yet. Compare them on price and context instead.

What each workload costs
Three fixed token mixes at each model's listed price, so per-token rates become a bill.
Chat turn
1K input + 500 output tokens
GLM 4.7 costs less
