# Highlights - July 2026
- **Naming policy update**: going forward, model identifiers will reference only the major version number under [semantic versioning](https://semver.org/), for example `GLM 5` rather than `GLM 5.1` or `GLM 5.2`. Minor and patch releases will no longer be announced by email; they will still be recorded here in the changelog. Major version promotions, and any hard removal of a previously reachable model ID, will continue to trigger a customer notification regardless of whether the underlying change was major or minor.

- Promoted `inference-glm5` (GLM 5.2) from [Sandbox Models](../maas/sandbox-models.md) to [Active Models](../maas/active-models.md); the model is now generally available on the Sunrise Model Service. Hugging Face reference: [zai-org/GLM-5.2](https://huggingface.co/zai-org/GLM-5.2). Pricing is unchanged from the previous minor release; context window is 131'072 tokens.

- Through July 31, 2026, requests to `inference-glm-51-754b` will be automatically redirected to `inference-glm5`. No customer-side change is required during this window.

- Starting August 1, 2026, `inference-glm-51-754b` will be fully decommissioned and the redirect removed; see [Decommissioned Models](../maas/decommissioned-models.md). Any application or agent still calling `inference-glm-51-754b` directly must be updated to `inference-glm5` before then, or requests will start failing.

- Added `inference-apertus-v15-70b` (Apertus 1.5) to [Active Models](../maas/active-models.md) on the Sunrise Model Service after sandbox evaluation. Hugging Face reference: [swiss-ai/Apertus-v1.5-70B](https://huggingface.co/swiss-ai/Apertus-v1.5-70B). Optimized for multilingual dialogue, tool use, and agent workflows.

- New Model Service **Base LLM API** plan (CHF 50/month, 50 credits) replaces Exploratory. See [Subscription Plans](../maas/subscriptions/index.md).

- New **Additional LLM Credits** top-up plan: add credits self-service in the Sunrise Console, no service ticket required. See [How to add LLM Credits](../maas/model-service-guides/how-to-add-additional-llm-credits.md).

- Updated MaaS subscription docs, FAQs, and guides; added [model status dashboard](https://status.ai.sunrise.ch/) link.

- Added an [IaaS Quickstart Guide](../iaas/getting-started/quickstart-guide.md) with step-by-step portal purchase flow for Resource Groups, Capacity Pools, resources, and choosing between a Namespace or Hosted Cluster.

- Expanded [Key Management FAQ](../faq/key-management/index.md) with new Cloud HSM questions covering HA scaling, GREP11/mTLS authentication, SLA, key ceremonies, and sandbox trials.

- Added [Connect MCP Tools](../aiplatform/ai-assistant/connect-mcp-tools/) guides for linking Sunrise Business AI Assistant to enterprise systems via MCP, including [Atlassian Rovo](../aiplatform/ai-assistant/connect-mcp-tools/atlassian-mcp-server.md) and [Microsoft 365](../aiplatform/ai-assistant/connect-mcp-tools/microsoft-mcp-server.md).
