The blog author complains of "lack of/poor web search capabilities" in GLM, but you can always use it against an MCP of which there are many. For applications where I am not concerned about my queries being passed through a US provider, I have had success with exa[1]
There are also other ways to give it context without web-search. For example the various MCPs that make `man` pages available.
I've also found GLM to be quite strong for coding tasks without the need for web search. So it also depends what you're doing.
