Scavio for GLM Agent with Web Search

The Problem

An r/ZaiGLM post asked: can web_search work with GLM? Yes — GLM accepts the OpenAI tool-calling shape, so any HTTP search API plugs in. Scavio is purpose-built for the typed JSON GLM tools want.

How Scavio Helps

• OpenAI-compatible tool wrapper
• 12-line integration
• Multi-surface from one key
• Lower per-call cost than alternatives
• MCP option if GLM client supports

Quick Start: Python Example

Here is a quick example searching Google for "best mcp practices 2026":

import requests

API_KEY = "your_scavio_api_key"

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search",
    headers={
        "x-api-key": API_KEY,
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
    },
    json={"query": query},
)

data = response.json()
for result in data.get("organic_results", [])[:5]:
    print(f"{result['position']}. {result['title']}")
    print(f"   {result['link']}\n")

Built for GLM agent builders, Chinese-market AI developers, multi-LLM teams running GLM-4 or GLM Coder

Scavio handles the search infrastructure — proxies, CAPTCHAs, rate limits, and anti-bot detection — so you can focus on building your glm agent with web search solution. The API returns structured JSON that is ready for processing, analysis, or feeding into AI agents.
