Grok Bot is now more powerful for building software. Bots can hand off coding tasks to Cursor, manage your PRs with GitHub and Origin plugins, and share video demos of what they build.

want to build on the @X api but not sure how to get started? hire the X API Engineer in Grok Bot! It will surface ideas from our exhibit, help you build and test, and deploy your project for others to use. can't wait to see what you all build

We've reduced token costs in Cursor by 7% with no drop in agent quality. Savings came from tighter prompts, selective tool loading, better caching, and compressed file reads.

We rebuilt customer support around Grok Bot to scale our operations without adding headcount. It works autonomously to respond to customers, resolve tickets, and manage the queue. https://x.ai/news/grok-bot-customer-support

GROK 4.7 IS ACTUALLY COMPETING WITH GPT-6 ASTRA. I gave GPT-6 Astra, Grok 4.7, Kimi K3 and Fable 5.1 the same prompt to build a flight simulator Astra was still #1 overall, but Grok 4.7 was surprisingly close Kimi K3 and Fable 5.1 were basically a draw and both produced a much smoother result, while Grok 4.7 was right up there with Astra in terms of overall quality. overall: Astra > Grok ≈ Kimi ≈ Fable GPT-6 Astra finally has some serious competition.

how can we improve grok @bot? what would you like to see added?

you can now share grok bots! here's the projects manager to manage teams of grok bots 1. install bot: https://t.co/QG7yo1GIMV 2. ask the bot to create specialists - coder - designer - researcher - writer 3. create your first project with projects manager! https://t.co/kEoUyfghPi https://t.co/vhv3xpSOpL

Note this applies to all first-party models in Cursor, including Composer 2.5 and future Grok models. We’re also working hard at making your Grok Bot usage last longer! More on that soon.

how to make your grok bot plan last longer: 1) use an event trigger when you can. slack, github, a reaction. the bot only runs when something actually happened (a cron wakes it even if nothing changed) 2) instruct the bot to notify you as soon as it can’t make further progress or is stalled. this way you as human can help putting it on the right course again 3) connectors > browser when possible! clicking around a site is a pile of screenshots and steps. a connector gives you the same data in one call, and it's so much nicer/faster/smoother 4) keep skills tight, but put in the details that actually steer the run. too vague and the bot might wander, retry, and costs more than a slightly longer one. too specific and you have to make sure its really correct 5) don't do the coding in the bot chat! kick a cloud agent at the repo, or ask it to use cursor/grok build cli to do it 6) delete one-shot watches when they're not needed anymore (grok bot will remind you about this)
