Registry nameai.zens/call-grokbot

Install

Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Consult existing Grok Bots from Codex and Claude Code using official Cursor browser login.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Web & browsers

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: CALL_GROKBOT_AUTH_MODE

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "call-grokbot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "call-grokbot"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CALL_GROKBOT_AUTH_MODE": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add call-grokbot --env CALL_GROKBOT_AUTH_MODE=your-value -- npx -y call-grokbot

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "call-grokbot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "call-grokbot"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CALL_GROKBOT_AUTH_MODE": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "call-grokbot": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "call-grokbot"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CALL_GROKBOT_AUTH_MODE": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • CALL_GROKBOT_AUTH_MODE env
    Use the official Cursor CLI browser session. Run call-grokbot login before use.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Call Grok Bot safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.3) reached the registry 5 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Browser Use, Chrome DevTools MCP, MCP Server Browser

call-grokbot

Ask your existing Grok Bots from Codex and Claude Code. A local stdio MCP server sends one self-contained task, reads incremental replies, and can interrupt a contacted bot. Your bot keeps its existing conversation, memory, and connected tools.

Unofficial. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or supported by Cursor / Anysphere, xAI / Grok, OpenAI, or Anthropic. The Grok Bot RPC is undocumented and may change. No public model-inference endpoint is provided.

How it works

Before you start

  • Install Node.js 22.13+, npm, and Git.
  • Install and sign in to the client you want to use: Codex or Claude Code. Your coding client's account is separate from the Cursor login below.
  • Install the official Cursor CLI.
  • Have a Grok Bot account and at least one existing bot. Use the exact bot name shown in your app; this package does not create bots.

Choose the plugin guide for Codex or Claude Code. Both plugins include the consult skill and start the MCP server with a pinned npx package. You do not need a global call-grokbot install, a source checkout, an npm account, or a personal API key.

macOS browser authentication uses the official CLI's login Keychain entries. Linux and Windows use the official CLI's auth file. Do not copy tokens into MCP configuration. Real-account plugin tests passed on macOS; Linux and Windows have CI coverage, but their real-account login flows have not been verified.

Plugin release 0.1.2 uses npm runtime 0.1.1. Its npx commands pin the official npm tarball URL, so npm cannot substitute the current same-name source checkout. This fixes command not found and MCP CONNECTION_CLOSED inside this repository and also works with an empty cache. No global package installation is required.

Codex plugin quickstart

1. Install the plugin in your terminal
codex plugin marketplace add ZensHQ/call-grokbot --ref plugin-v0.1.2

codex plugin add call-grokbot@call-grokbot codex plugin list

Confirm that call-grokbot@call-grokbot is installed and enabled. These are terminal commands. If your Codex installation does not recognize plugin, update to a version that supports plugin commands. See the official Codex plugin documentation.

2. Sign in to the bot account in your terminal
npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz login

npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz doctor

login runs the official Cursor CLI's agent login. In the browser, select the account that owns your bot and complete any security check. doctor should report "authenticated": true, "authMode": "browser", and "cursorCliFound": true, without printing credentials.

3. Open a new Codex session and call the skill

Start Codex from the project you want to work in:

codex

Type this in the Codex conversation, not in your terminal:

$call-grokbot:consult List my existing bots. Do not send any message.

Choose an exact name from the result. In the example below, replace Research Bot with your bot's actual name:

$call-grokbot:consult Ask my existing bot "Research Bot" to reply exactly PONG.

Send the task once. If it is running, use check until it finishes; do not resend.

This sends a real message to that bot's existing conversation. A successful check means you received PONG and the task reached finished; an initial acknowledgement is not enough. For a real task, replace the PONG request with one self-contained brief containing the relevant facts, constraints, allowed actions, and desired output.

Claude Code plugin quickstart

1. Install the plugin in your terminal
claude plugin marketplace add ZensHQ/call-grokbot

claude plugin install call-grokbot@call-grokbot --scope user claude plugin list

Confirm that call-grokbot@call-grokbot is enabled. User scope makes it available to your Claude Code projects on this machine. If you are already inside Claude Code, the interactive equivalents are:

/plugin marketplace add ZensHQ/call-grokbot

/plugin install call-grokbot@call-grokbot

In the interactive install panel, choose Install for you (user scope). See the official Claude Code plugin documentation for other installation scopes.

2. Sign in to the bot account in your terminal
npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz login

npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz doctor

Complete the official Cursor CLI browser sign-in with the account that owns your bot. Confirm "authenticated": true, "authMode": "browser", and "cursorCliFound": true in the doctor result. If you already signed in for the Codex plugin on this machine, both plugins share that official CLI session; run npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz doctor to check it instead of signing in again.

3. Check the connection, then open a new Claude Code session

In your terminal:

claude mcp list

claude

The health check should show plugin:call-grokbot:call-grokbot as connected. Allow the server to finish connecting before your first request. If a session was open before installation, start a new one so it loads the plugin and skill.

Type this in the Claude Code conversation:

/call-grokbot:consult List my existing bots. Do not send any message.

Replace Research Bot below with an exact existing name from the result:

/call-grokbot:consult Ask my existing bot "Research Bot" to reply exactly PONG.

Send the task once. If it is running, use check until it finishes; do not resend.

This is a real message in your bot's conversation. Verify both PONG and finished. For normal work, provide the relevant content in the brief: the bot cannot automatically see your Claude Code session or project files.

Setup troubleshooting

SymptomWhat to do
call-grokbot: command not foundPlugin installs do not add a global executable. Use npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz login or npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz doctor in your terminal.
command not found or CONNECTION_CLOSED inside the call-grokbot source checkoutUse plugin 0.1.2 and its pinned npm tarball URL. Adding a fix to a terminal command alone does not update an already installed plugin. The older --global workaround can fail with an empty npm cache.
CLI_MISSINGInstall the official Cursor CLI linked above. For a nonstandard location, set CALL_GROKBOT_CURSOR_CLI to its absolute executable path.
AUTH_REQUIRED or AUTH_EXPIREDRun the pinned npx login command again, finish browser sign-in, and run npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz doctor. MCP startup does not open a browser for you.
The skill or MCP tools are missingConfirm the plugin is installed and enabled with codex plugin list or claude plugin list, then start a new client session. An MCP-only install does not include the skill.
Claude Code says the tools are unavailable or the server is still connectingWait for MCP startup and check claude mcp list. If the session still has no tools, open a new session after the health check reports connected. Do not resend a task that may already have been sent.
A bot is missing or a request returns 403Confirm the exact bot name and the browser account you signed in to. A valid login does not guarantee access to the undocumented bot RPC; see Recovery and boundaries.

Update an existing plugin installation

A Codex marketplace pinned to an earlier tag stays on that tag. To move it to this plugin release, run these commands in your terminal:

codex plugin remove call-grokbot@call-grokbot

codex plugin marketplace remove call-grokbot codex plugin marketplace add ZensHQ/call-grokbot --ref plugin-v0.1.2 codex plugin add call-grokbot@call-grokbot

For the Claude Code user-scope installation:

claude plugin marketplace update call-grokbot

claude plugin update call-grokbot@call-grokbot --scope user

Start a new client session after updating. Your official Cursor CLI login is shared independently of the plugin and does not need to be repeated while valid.

Optional: direct MCP configuration

Use this instead of the plugin when you only need the four MCP tools. Do not install both paths in the same client, or you will get duplicate tools. This path does not include consult; ask the coding assistant to use the call-grokbot tools in an ordinary prompt.

First complete the same terminal login and doctor check:

npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz login

npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz doctor

For Codex, register the server from your terminal:

codex mcp add call-grokbot -- npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz

For a bot allowlist and longer tasks, configure the same entry in ~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.call-grokbot]

command = "npx" args = ["--yes", "https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz"] startup_timeout_sec = 30 tool_timeout_sec = 660 env = { CALL_GROKBOT_AGENTS = "Research Bot" }

For Claude Code, register the server from your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport stdio --scope user call-grokbot -- npx --yes https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz

Or use this .mcp.json in a trusted project instead of the user-scope entry:

{

"mcpServers": { "call-grokbot": { "command": "npx", "args": ["--yes", "https://registry.npmjs.org/call-grokbot/-/call-grokbot-0.1.1.tgz"], "env": { "CALL_GROKBOT_AUTH_MODE": "browser", "CALL_GROKBOT_AGENTS": "Research Bot" } } } }

Replace Research Bot with an exact existing name. Open a new client session after changing MCP configuration.

Optional: global or source installation

For a global command, install npm install --global call-grokbot@0.1.1. You can then use call-grokbot login, doctor, and the other subcommands directly instead of the pinned npx form.

To run from source:

git clone https://github.com/ZensHQ/call-grokbot.git

cd call-grokbot npm ci npm run build node dist/cli.js login node dist/cli.js doctor

Use node /absolute/path/to/call-grokbot/dist/cli.js for source commands. For JSON/TOML MCP configuration, set command to node and args to ["/absolute/path/to/call-grokbot/dist/cli.js"].
