How to use Grok Bot (October 2026): linking SuperGrok, what to hand it, how usage is counted, and SuperGrok or Heavy

What is Grok Bot, and how is it different from chatting with Grok?

Grok Bot is a separate app from Grok chat. It entered beta on August 11, 2026 and has been included with every individual SuperGrok tier since August 26, 2026. In chat you get an answer; a Bot is meant to finish the job in the tools where the work lives. The docs (overview page dated October 7, 2026, read October 11, 2026) describe it in six points, and each one changes how you should use it:

• Named Bots, one job each. A Bot has a name, a job, its own conversation and working context that builds up over time. The docs recommend a focused role such as an expense manager over a general helper, because a narrow job produces context the Bot can reuse.
• One cloud computer per account. It is persistent and has a browser, a filesystem and a terminal. All your Bots share its files, browser sessions and app logins, which is what makes handoffs work. It also means separate Bots are not a security boundary: do not put a credential or a file there if another of your Bots should not be able to use it. Between different users, the docs say, isolation is strict.
• It keeps working with the laptop closed. The work runs in the cloud, so closing the app, the laptop or the phone does not stop a background task or a routine.
• Several Bots in parallel. Each Bot gets its own screen on the shared computer and runs one computer-use task on it at a time; Bots can message each other and pass ownership of a task.
• Memory, with a caveat. A Bot keeps stable preferences, role context and summaries of prior work. For a decision that matters, the docs tell you to have the Bot check the current source instead of relying on memory.
• Connectors first, computer use for the rest. Where a connector exists (you install them as plugins from Connect apps) the Bot uses it, and the docs call that the more reliable path. For services without one, it works through the browser the way you would.

The desktop app runs on macOS, Windows, Linux and the mobile app on iPhone, iPad, Android; the same Bots and conversations appear on every signed-in device. You can type, dictate or start a voice chat, and a Bot can send you a voice memo. Two things still need the desktop app: editing or testing a routine, and teaching a task by demonstration.

What can you hand to Grok Bot?

Every row below comes from SpaceXSI’s docs or the Grok Bot changelog, read on October 11, 2026; none of it is our own test result. The docs’ advice is to start with read-and-prepare work, review the result, and only then add approved actions or a schedule.

How to phrase a task. The Get started page lists five things a strong request contains: the outcome, the sources, the constraints, the deliverable and the review point where the Bot should stop for you. Put rules that must always hold, such as never sending external messages without approval, in the Bot’s description rather than in a single message.

What not to hand it:

• Anything behind a sign-in you cannot complete yourself. The Bot hands passwords, two-factor codes and CAPTCHAs back to you; it does not work around them.
• Sites that refuse automation. A site can block automation, expire a session or require a human step, and the docs say the Bot passes that step to you.
• Unsupervised sending, buying, deleting or production changes. The docs keep these behind approval even after the rest of the job has become a routine.
• Broad triggers. A listener on every new message creates noise and, in the docs’ words, consumes usage.

What is new in Grok Bot in October 2026?

The two most recent entries in the official changelog, as read on October 11, 2026:

In practice: decks and formatted email are now things a Bot delivers as finished files and drafts, and the Bot’s screen grew from 1280 × 800 to 1920 × 1200, which gives you more room when you watch it work or take over for a sign-in. Neither entry mentions a change of model.

How do you set up Grok Bot with SuperGrok? (7 steps)

1. Have SuperGrok or SuperGrok Heavy active on your Grok account: Grok Bot needs an eligible plan. An individual SuperGrok, SuperGrok Plus or SuperGrok Heavy subscription counts once it is linked; SuperGrok Lite does not. Sign in at grok.com and confirm the plan shows as active before you go on.
2. Install Grok Bot: Download the desktop app from x.ai/bot for macOS, Windows, Linux (Apple silicon or Intel, x64 or Arm64), or install the mobile app on iPhone, iPad, Android. The same Bots and conversations sync across your signed-in devices.
3. Sign in with the Cursor account you intend to keep: Grok Bot signs in with a Cursor account: choose Sign in, finish in the browser window that opens and return to the app. No paid Cursor plan is needed. Check which Cursor account you are in now, because the next step cannot be undone.
4. Link your Grok account from the plan screen: On a phone choose Link Grok Account, sign in to the Grok account that holds SuperGrok, then choose Finished Linking? Refresh My Status. On desktop the option is under Settings → Usage & Billing. The link is permanent: it cannot be removed or moved to another Cursor account.
5. Create a Bot and describe its job: Pick a suggested teammate or choose Create your own, and give the Bot a short name, one primary job and a description of how it should work, including what it must never do. The docs say a focused Bot builds more useful context than a catch-all one.
6. Give it a first task and grant access as it asks: State the outcome, the sources, the constraints, the deliverable and the point where it should stop for you. When the Bot reaches a sign-in, open Agent Computer, take over, enter the password or two-factor code or solve the CAPTCHA yourself, and hand control back.
7. Set “Ask first” rules before you automate anything: Under Settings → General → Auto-review, add narrow Ask first rules for sending, publishing, deleting, purchasing and changing production systems. Once a task works reliably, ask the Bot to save it as a skill, test it, and only then schedule it as a routine.

• No paid Cursor plan is required. The help page says that if you had no Cursor plan before linking, you still have none, and Grok Bot usage comes from the SuperGrok grant alone.
• Cloud storage is required. A Cursor account on Legacy Privacy Mode has to move to a supported data setting before Grok Bot can start.
• Phone requirements. iPhone with iOS 18 or later, iPad with iPadOS 18 or later, or Android 9 or later.
• Test before you buy for it. If Grok Bot is your main reason for subscribing, install the app and sign in with your Cursor account first, so you know it runs on your device and network.

No SuperGrok yet? Order SuperGrok (44.57 USDT) or order SuperGrok Heavy (297.92 USDT); the rules are in the buying section below.

How is Grok Bot usage counted?

The rules are on Cursor’s Plans and billing page, because Cursor does the metering. Read on October 11, 2026:

Neither SpaceXSI nor Cursor publishes the amounts. There is no figure for tasks, hours or tokens per week on any SuperGrok tier, and we will not invent one. What you can do is watch the Weekly usage meter under Settings → Usage & Billing during your first week.

• Scope tasks tightly and check the meter before a long job. That is the help page’s own advice for making a credit last.
• Keep event triggers narrow. The docs warn that broad listeners consume usage.
• Review paused routines. To control unattended usage, Grok Bot may ask whether to keep routines running after a long period away and pause them if you do not answer.
• Without a card for on-demand, the weekly grant is your whole budget. On-demand is billed through Cursor, and if Grok Bot asks for a card you add it on Cursor’s website. If no card of yours works there, the only option once the grant runs out is to wait for the reset, and the tier you chose matters more.
• Expect a gap between two orders with us. We cannot renew early, and the link grants usage only while the subscription is active, so between the end of one month and the activation of the next there is no linked usage. The link itself stays in place.

SuperGrok or SuperGrok Heavy for Grok Bot?

Cursor’s help page separates the three linkable tiers by usage only:

So the reason to buy each plan is simple. SuperGrok is the cheapest of the three plans that include Grok Bot. Heavy carries the highest linked usage, in Cursor’s own words. Find your pattern:

At today’s prices Heavy costs about 6.7 times SuperGrok here (297.92 USDT against 44.57 USDT); nobody publishes how many times more Grok Bot usage it carries, so do not assume the same multiple. If you are unsure, take one month of SuperGrok and watch the Weekly usage meter. If it runs out before the reset in more than one week, order Heavy when the month ends: we cannot move an active SuperGrok to Heavy, but once Heavy is active on the same Grok account the grant follows it, with no new link. If you already know you will run several Bots daily, start on Heavy for the same reason. Heavy also carries what its plan card promises for Grok itself: Highest usage at the fastest speed · Solve extremely hard problems · Most powerful intelligence · Dedicated support & early access. The tiers are compared feature by feature in SuperGrok vs SuperGrok Heavy, and what SuperGrok gives you besides Grok Bot is in Is SuperGrok worth it?

Is Grok Bot safe? Approvals, passwords and what it cannot do

These points come from three docs pages: the FAQ (dated September 29, 2026), Use the computer and apps (October 9, 2026) and Grok Bot security (September 28, 2026).

• Approvals. When an action needs approval, the conversation shows the proposed operation and you choose Allow once, Always allow or Deny. An Ask first rule always stops the matching action. The docs suggest such rules for sending, publishing, deleting, purchasing and changing production systems.
• Your credentials stay with you. For a password or passkey, a two-factor code, a CAPTCHA, a payment or an identity check, the Bot asks you to take over the computer. You complete only that step and hand control back. The docs tell you not to paste passwords or one-time codes into chat.
• Sites can say no. A site may block automation, expire a session or ask for verification again. The Bot is meant to pause and tell you, not to bypass the check.
• One shared computer. Files, browser sessions and logins are available to every Bot on your account, and deleting a Bot does not remove them from the computer.
• Your own computer is separate. A Bot runs commands on your local machine only if that capability is enabled and you approve it; the docs recommend Never allow unless a Bot has a specific reason to work on local files.
• Data. Grok Bot uses Cursor authentication and your Cursor account’s data settings, needs cloud data storage and does not support Legacy Privacy Mode. The security page says Grok Bot computers run in the United States today.
• Web content can try to steer a Bot. The security page says its layered controls reduce that risk without eliminating it, which is one more reason to keep consequential actions behind approval.
• You do not choose the model. The security page says Cursor manages model selection and there is no model picker. 9to5Mac and Implicator reported on October 7, 2026 that some tasks are routed to Claude Opus 5.5; these are media reports, covered in Grok Bot and Claude Opus 5.5.

How do you buy SuperGrok or SuperGrok Heavy through us?

We add the plan to your own Grok account, the same account you then link in Grok Bot. Linking is something you do yourself in the app; we never need your Cursor login or any password.

• The account must be on the free plan. An account with an active SuperGrok, SuperGrok Plus or SuperGrok Heavy subscription can’t be topped up.
• No early renewal, and no switching tiers mid-month. You can’t buy Heavy through us while SuperGrok is still active; wait for it to end and the account to return to free. If your plan auto-renews with SpaceXSI, turn that off there first. Choose the right tier on the first order.
• The session JSON gets a format check, not a sign-in test. It holds your sign-in status, account ID and email, with no login token. Paste it only into the order form, never into a chat.
• Activation is done by hand. We do not promise a fixed time. Each order covers one month, and a renewal is a new order after the month ends.

1. Check the account and pick the tier: Sign in at grok.com and check the account’s current plan. It must be on the free plan: an account with an active SuperGrok, SuperGrok Plus or SuperGrok Heavy subscription cannot be topped up or renewed early. Then choose SuperGrok or SuperGrok Heavy on the pricing page and check the price.
2. Copy your session: In a desktop browser, sign in to grok.com, then open grok.com/api/auth/session in the same browser and copy all of the JSON on the page (Ctrl/Cmd + A, then Ctrl/Cmd + C). No password is needed.
3. Paste it into the order form for a format check: Paste it only into the order form, never into a chat window. The form checks the format: signed in, with an account ID and an email. If the format is wrong, it tells you why and you are not charged.
4. Pay in USDT: Choose TRC20 or BEP20 and send exactly the USDT amount shown; the quote is valid for 3 hours, the amount identifies your order, and payment is confirmed automatically.
5. Wait for activation, then link: After payment our team activates the plan on that account by hand; we do not promise a fixed time. Sign in at grok.com, confirm the plan, then link the account in Grok Bot. The session JSON is stored encrypted and cleared once the order is complete. Contact the bottom-right live chat promptly if anything goes wrong.

Ready? Order SuperGrok (44.57 USDT) or order SuperGrok Heavy (297.92 USDT). The session page and the order form’s error messages are covered in How to buy SuperGrok; sending USDT step by step is in the USDT payment guide.

What we commit to, and what we cannot promise

What we commit to:

1. Format check before you pay. If the session format is wrong, the order form says why and you are not charged.
2. Your own account. The plan goes on the Grok account you submitted, not a shared one, and your chats stay where they are.
3. Session encrypted and cleared. It is cleared once the order is complete, and we never need your password.
4. Human support. Contact the bottom-right live chat promptly if anything goes wrong, or message Telegram @ccnb1937.
5. Track record. ClaudeMax has operated since November 2024 and has served more than 20,000 users (our own figure).

What we cannot promise:

• We are not SpaceXSI. ClaudeMax is independent: not SpaceXSI (xAI), not Cursor, and not an authorized reseller of either.
• How much Grok Bot usage you get. SpaceXSI and Cursor decide what each tier’s linked usage is and do not publish it, so we cannot tell you how many tasks a week a plan covers.
• The link is yours to make, and it is permanent. We cannot undo a link made to the wrong Cursor account, and neither can you.
• SpaceXSI sets the plan contents. Limits, models and features can change; Grok Bot, for example, only joined SuperGrok on August 26, 2026. The official pages are the authority.
• SpaceXSI’s rules are SpaceXSI’s. We have no agreement with SpaceXSI, and if it restricts an account under its own terms we cannot undo that. Keep one person per account; do not lend or split it.
• No fixed activation time. Activation is done by hand after payment; ask the live chat about progress at any time.
• Prices are not fixed forever. They follow cost and exchange rates; the pricing page is authoritative.
