Day 4 on the merged X/Grok/Cursor plan: Cursor cloud agents burn most (~3.3% weekly usage/hr), regular Cursor agent ~2.5%/hr, Grok CLI ~2%/hr, Grok 4.7 medium ~1.3%/hr. Gotcha: Auto model selection picked Claude and billed $4.95 to credits instead of included usage, so pin a Grok model. Bots are his biggest usage; ~14%/day budget to last the week; 45% at midweek. Complains of usage anxiety and wants separate pools.

Devin Olsen shared Elon's 'ask your Grok Bot to remove your phone number from spam call & text lists' post to his bot, and it removed his number from multiple sites on its own.

Arash had Grok Bot find his phone number on people-search/data-broker sites and file removals to stop spam calls; shared it free as the 'Spam-Call Scrubber' Grok Bot template: finds listings, submits opt-outs, completes email confirmations, re-checks on a schedule.
Opt-in unified plans across Cursor, Grok, Grok Bot and X (quoting SpaceXSI's 'The X Subscription')
By matt palmer · @mattyp · Oct. 12, 2026
Opt-in unified plans across Cursor, Grok, Grok Bot and X (quoting SpaceXSI's 'The X Subscription'). Plus $8, Premium $30 (4x), Super $100 (15x), Ultra $200 (50x); weekly shared pool; Grok/Composer limits ~2x; Grok Bot usage first-party; Grok Bot with Premium+; X Premium included. Third-party models billed at API list price (no subsidy). Pro/Pro+ switchers get Premium $20 or Super $60 for 6 months. xAI API credits merge into Cursor. Keeping the current plan is allowed.
Grok Bot workaround for missing Apple connectors: tell it once to use Mac CLIs on your registered Mac. List: Reminders (remindctl), Messages (imsg), Notes (memo), Calendar (apple-calendar), Contacts (apple-contacts), iCloud Mail (Mail.app / apple-mail), Maps (apple-maps), Phone (apple-phone), Photos (Spotlight / Photos tools), Find My (Mac GUI only if asked).
"Message bot to claim your handle — these will go quick!" Quoting @bot: Grok Bot now has its own email; it can use it to sign up for services, contact businesses for you, or schedule time with someone.
Pro tip: tell your main Grok Bot to read the new Grok Bot Guides and recommend best practices for your bots. Guides (x.ai/bot/guides) are practical playbooks by role: Getting started (Grok Bot 101, Grok Bot for Work, Templates), Engineering (fleet of engineer bots managing cloud agents, running multiple teams of bots, mobile app dev), plus PMs, Design, GTM, Sales, Support, Marketing, Recruiting, Legal.

Turn a Mac Mini into a remote worker with one command: `cursor agent worker start`. Cursor can also control the screen remotely via Computer Use. Screenshot attached.
Cloud Agents from Grok Bot are hidden in the Cursor sidebar by default
By matt palmer · @mattyp · Sep. 26, 2026
Cloud Agents from Grok Bot are hidden in the Cursor sidebar by default. Turn them on via Customize Sidebar next to Repositories so chats show as they're created from @bot — for a smoother handoff from Grok Bot into Cursor.
