Step 10: Your bot's computer and browser Beginner

Your bots don't just chat. They can use a real computer in the cloud, with a browser, to visit websites, fill in pages and work with files. You can watch them work, and step in when they need you.

1. A shared cloud computer, one desktop per bot

Grok Bot gives your bots a cloud computer. Your bots share that one machine, so files, installed tools and browser logins set up by one bot are there for the others. Each bot gets its own desktop and browser window on it, though, so two bots don't fight over the same screen. It keeps running when your laptop is closed.

2. Watch a bot work

1. Open the bot's chat.
2. Click the bot's name in the chat header (or press Cmd+Shift+I) to open its info pane.
3. At the top you'll see a live preview of the bot's computer. Click it to open the full-screen view.

3. Take over when needed

Sometimes a step needs you, like a single sign-on page, a passkey, or a check only a person can do. The bot hands you the computer. Cursor's guide describes choosing Open computer, finishing that step yourself, and then returning control so the bot can carry on. You can watch and take over from the phone app too.

4. Logins stick around

When you or the bot sign in to a website, the session stays on the cloud computer for future tasks, so you don't need to sign in every time.

5. If the computer misbehaves

In Settings, the Computer tab has two recovery options (Step 4):

• Update Bot's Computer: moves to a fresh instance and keeps files and logins (installed software must be reinstalled). Try this first.
• Reset Bot's Computer: last resort. It restores from the last saved snapshot and can lose recent work.

Facts about the app on this page come from Cursor's official Grok Bot documentation. Menus can change between versions; if something looks different, check the official docs.
