How is Grok Bot different from Grok Build or Cursor?

Grok Bot is an always-on teammate on xAI’s cloud computer. You message it from desktop or iOS. Grok Build is xAI’s terminal coding agent. You connect OpenQuok over MCP in the shell. Cursor is OpenQuok inside Agent and Composer. Same workspace and approval flow. Pick Grok Bot for messaging-first volume. Pick Grok Build when you live in the terminal. Pick Cursor when you stay in the repo.

Which channel is first-class for Grok Bot?

X is first-class for Grok Bot on OpenQuok. Connect other networks when your workflow needs them. Grok Bot runs on xAI’s cloud computer with many named Bots.

How does Grok Bot compare to OpenClaw or Dots?

Choose Grok Bot for many named Bots on one xAI cloud desktop without server ops. Choose Grok Build MCP when you want the xAI coding agent in your terminal. Choose OpenClaw when you must self-host and message from Telegram, WhatsApp, or Slack. Choose Dots for OpenAI workplace chat. See the Grok Bot vs OpenClaw guide.

Grok Bot is an AI teammate product with a shared persistent cloud computer — browser, filesystem, and terminal — for each Bot you create. You message it from macOS, Windows desktop, or iOS, install skills via Settings → Plugins or / in chat, and set up routines for scheduled work. See the Grok Bot integration and agent setup guides.

Which plans can use Grok Bot?

Grok Bot is included with Cursor Pro, Pro+, Ultra, and self-serve Cursor Teams — sign in with the same Cursor account on desktop or iOS. You can also link individual SuperGrok, SuperGrok Plus, SuperGrok Heavy, or X Premium+, or sign in with a self-serve Grok Business seat; weekly usage tiers do not stack. SuperGrok Lite is not included. See Cursor Grok Bot plans and billing. OpenQuok billing is separate — you still need a workspace and connected channels on Pricing.

How do I install the openquok-core skill in Grok Bot?

Install @openquok/auto-cli on the Bot cloud computer, add openquok-core as a skill, and authenticate once. See the Grok Bot agent guide or the scheduling walkthrough.

Where do OpenQuok credentials live?

The global CLI and auth files live on the Bot shared cloud computer — the same environment where openquok-core runs shell commands. Your OpenQuok workspace tokens never need to be pasted into chat; use OAuth device flow or a programmatic opo_ token on that computer. See OAuth2 for apps and Public API docs for token setup.

What can Grok Bot do with Instagram on OpenQuok?

Grok Bot can draft and schedule Instagram posts, upload images and video, apply per-platform settings, and pull platform and post analytics for your connected Instagram account. The openquok-core skill documents integrations:list, posts:create, posts:status, analytics:platform, upload, and more — every command returns structured JSON for the agent to parse. See Grok Bot + Instagram and the Instagram humanizer tool for channel-specific workflows.

Why use OpenQuok if Grok Bot has a cloud computer?

A cloud browser can click through sites, but it is a poor fit for a social calendar. Do not put social passwords or payment details in Grok Bot chat. Scripted logins often hit captchas and can break platform rules. OpenQuok connects each channel once with OAuth or app credentials and publishes through official APIs. Tokens stay encrypted on our servers. You still message Grok Bot to draft and queue; you approve on the calendar or kanban before anything goes live. See the connect channels guide.

How does Grok Bot schedule Instagram posts?

Connect your Instagram account via the Instagram setup guide or the Instagram channel landing. Install openquok-core on Grok Bot with the Grok Bot agent guide. Message your assistant to schedule — Grok Bot uses integration UUIDs from openquok integrations:list to target your Instagram account. Every post lands as a draft or scheduled item until you approve on the calendar or kanban. Browse Instagram playbooks and Instagram building blocks for format ideas.

Does Grok Bot publish immediately or wait for approval?

It depends on you. You can ask Grok Bot to publish now when the copy is ready, or save drafts and scheduled posts and approve them later on the OpenQuok calendar or kanban. Tell Grok Bot to use draft-only or not to publish when you want a review step first.

Why use Grok Bot with CLI instead of MCP-only?

openquok-core is CLI-first for repeatable Bot workflows on the shared cloud computer. MCP fits ad hoc editor tools — see OpenQuok for Cursor or MCP setup. Many teams use both.

OpenQuok offers a 7-day free trial for scheduling on Pricing. Grok Bot access depends on your xAI or Cursor plan eligibility — install the app, create a Bot, add openquok-core, and begin scheduling from desktop chat.

Can I try OpenQuok for free?

Yes. OpenQuok offers one 7-day free trial per payment customer so you can run social media accounts on auto-pilot before you subscribe the plan. Create an account and start today — no credit card required. Canceling and resubscribing, or creating another workspace, does not grant a second trial. Plan limits are on Pricing and in the billing limits guide; trial rules are in the Cloud trial guide.

How do I schedule social media posts with OpenQuok?

Connect channels, write in Creating posts, then pick a time on the calendar or kanban. Agents can use the CLI, agent setup guides, or MCP setup guides.

What counts as a channel?

A channel is one connected social account (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, Threads, and more). Connect channels in the dashboard. Browse networks on Supported channels.

Is Instagram first-class for Meta Muse?

Yes. Instagram is a first-class Meta Muse channel on OpenQuok. Facebook, Instagram, and Threads are first-class Meta Muse channels on OpenQuok. Start with Facebook, Instagram, or Threads, then add other networks from the same workspace.

What is the difference between Instagram Business and Standalone in OpenQuok?

Instagram Business uses Facebook Login and suits accounts linked to a Facebook Page. Instagram Standalone uses Instagram Login directly. Both share the same publish pipeline. Pick the option that matches how your account is set up in Meta. See the connect channels guide and Instagram per-channel settings.

Can I schedule Instagram Reels with trending or copyrighted music?

OpenQuok publishes the video file you attach. It does not add tracks from Instagram's music library. Meta licenses in-app music mainly for personal, non-commercial use. Business and professional accounts face tighter rules on mainstream copyrighted audio. Edit royalty-free music into your video before upload, or add allowed audio in the Instagram app when Meta permits it. We offer Business and Standalone login so you can connect the account type that fits your setup. See how to connect Instagram.

How do I connect Instagram to OpenQuok?

Sign up for free, open a workspace, and choose Connect channel. Select the Instagram integration that matches your account type. Complete OAuth and, if Business login requires a Page selection, pick the correct profile in the connect flow. OpenQuok Cloud registers the Meta app for you. For self-hosted deployments, see the self-host Instagram setup guide.

How do I pass Meta business verification for a developer app?

On OpenQuok Cloud, you connect Instagram Business or Standalone with Add channel. You do not submit operator business verification for OpenQuok's Meta app. If you self-host, you use your own Meta developer app. Meta often requires business verification and App Review before Live publishing. See Meta business verification guide, OpenQuok Cloud, and the connect channels guide.

Can I schedule Instagram Reels, carousels, and Stories?

Yes. Attach a single MP4 for a Reel, 2–10 images or videos for a carousel, or one attachment with post type set to Story. Captions can run up to 2,200 characters on feed posts and Reels. Size assets in the Instagram photo editor. See media rules by platform.

Does OpenQuok support Trial Reels and collaborators?

Yes. Enable Trial Reel on a single MP4 feed post and choose manual or performance-based graduation. Add up to three collaborator usernames on single-media feed or Reel posts — not on carousels or Stories. See Instagram per-channel settings and Instagram CLI examples.

Can I schedule text follow-up comments on Instagram?

Yes. Add follow-up comment in the post editor (or pass instagram.replies via the API). Each comment publishes as text after the delay you set once the main post goes live. See follow-up comments guide and Instagram CLI examples.

Can I schedule Instagram posts from MCP, the API, or CLI?

Yes. Connect Instagram in our web dashboard, then follow MCP setup guides (ask your assistant in chat to list integrations and queue posts), CLI setup guides, the create-post API, or Instagram CLI examples. Pass providerSettings for post type, trial reel, collaborators, and follow-up comments.

Can I cross-post from Instagram to Threads and other channels?

Yes. Create & compose once in OpenQuok and publish the same idea to Instagram, Threads, X, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, and other connected channels from one workflow. Per-platform captions, aspect ratios, and character limits are applied separately, so each destination gets tailored copy from a single schedule. See Supported channels.

Does OpenQuok include an Instagram DM or comment inbox?

Not today. OpenQuok schedules posts and scheduled text follow-up comments — not DM replies, keyword auto-replies, or Story link stickers. See what each platform supports for follow-ups.

Where can I find setup steps for Meta app credentials?

See the self-host Instagram setup guide for redirect URIs, Meta app configuration, and backend environment variables required for OAuth. Browse Instagram playbooks for format ideas.
