Zen / GLM 5.3 Flash: repeated approximately 605-second first-generation delays and unknown finishes

We use native OpenCode 1.18.23 on Linux amd64 with opencode/glm-5.3-flash,
reasoning max. Please investigate the request path/provider routing for these
sessions. All times below are UTC. No prompts, customer information, credentials
or reasoning content are included.

On 22 September 2026 we observed three long intervals before the first recorded
reasoning event. These are client observations, not proof of provider queue time:

Session Assistant request record First reasoning event Delay
ses_f37d79ef9ffelEzl7A5IVqwuMA 08:08:05.113 08:18:10.846 605.733s
ses_f37dbfd60ffeSm2TVnZ8jAwl0q 08:03:39.629 08:13:42.433 602.804s
ses_f37dbfd60ffeSm2TVnZ8jAwl0q 08:15:22.252 08:25:26.677 604.425s

The first session subsequently produced a complete answer. The latter two turns
were in one outer session. Existing investigation reported zero retries; our
saved wrapper receipts confirm no wrapper retries. These records alone do not
prove whether an upstream gateway retried internally. Client memory had ample
headroom and the daemon did not restart during this interval.

Separately, the following 21 September native invocations ended with unknown finish
and no visible answer. Each wrapper receipt records one native invocation and zero
wrapper retries. A cleanup SIGKILL followed the incomplete response; it is not
evidence of an OOM or of the original upstream failure. Usage was unavailable,
not proven zero. We do not claim these share a root cause with the delays above.

Can you correlate these sessions and timestamps with Zen's upstream routing,
queueing, retries, idle deadlines and terminal stream events? Is an approximately
600-second boundary expected anywhere in that path? Which request-id/header is
reliable for future support correlation? Our previous Bun response-header logging
returned no headers and cannot establish HTTP/request-id provenance retroactively.

No additional provider runs have been started to reproduce this support report.
