Alibaba Cloud just dropped their “Coding Plan” on Model Studio. One subscription, four top-tier models: Qwen3.5-Plus , GLM-5 , Kimi K2.5 , and MiniMax M2.5 . Lite plan starts at $3 for the first month (18K requests/mo), Pro at $15 (90K requests/mo). The crazy part: you can switch between all four models freely under the same API key. I just added native support for it in Clother: clother config alibaba Then launch with any of the supported models: clother-alibaba # Qwen3.5-Plus (default) clother-alibaba --model kimi-k2.5 # Kimi K2.5 clother-alibaba --model glm-5 # GLM-5 clother-alibaba --model MiniMax-M2.5 # MiniMax M2.5 clother-alibaba --model qwen3-coder-next # Qwen3 Coder Next Early impressions: Qwen3.5-Plus is surprisingly solid for agentic coding and tool calls. 397B params but only 17B activated, quite fast too.
