Get More Out of Grok Bot
— Then Go Build Agents

Omarchy — A Native Agentic OS

• The machine assumes agents live here.
• Terminals are the product, not a settings panel.
• Cursor, Grok Bot, your agents — one floor.

Give your agent: omarchy.org

How I Killed My Own Trial

• Started the trial. Connected 25 connectors.
• First prompt: "Your trial has ended."
• Then I wired Grok Bot through my own Cloudflare MCP relay.
• It works. It is also a weekend project, not a demo.

A love story in three acts: connectors, regret, receipts. (xAI bills by model and token use — features cost before the fun starts.)

Grok Bot — What To Actually Watch

• Open Settings. Check usage like a bank balance — before and after every prompt, a few times a day.
• OFF: connectors, extra bots, screenshots, voice, cloud computer use.
• "Route egress through this desktop": your IP, your private networks. Routing, not a discount.
• Tokens are billed per model call — routing changes none. Usage limits are weekly.
• Community tip: offload heavy work to Grok Build / other agents when applicable.

The usage page is the app. The chat is just the expensive part.

Cursor — Spend The Credits On Purpose

• Cursor app + Cursor Agent: the real piggy bank.
• Composer models for grunt work. Frontier only for frontier work.
• Skip cloud agent — fastest way to burn credits.
• The bundled OpenAI models run on a ~35-day clock.

"I'll save these credits for later" — credits, one day before expiry.

Herdr — The Runtime Under Everything

• The floor your agents run on.
• Agents keep running — through lunch, overnight, next week.
• Not a tab. Not a process that dies with your laptop lid.

Give your agent: herdr.dev

Open Grok — Daily Driver, Then Build

• Rust. One binary. No Electron.
• Community Grok Build with Codex smarts.
• Customize it into your daily agent.
• Install the CLI and build with it. Chat is consumption.

Pi — Break Glass

• pi.dev — for the jobs that eat normal agents.
• Same runtime underneath. Different temperament.

Give your agent: pi.dev

Phones, Apps, One Trap

• HerdrUp mobile. Cursor and Grok Bot on the phone.
• Start a task at home, check it from the road.
• TRAP: the mobile Cursor app forces Cursor Cloud and burns tokens.
• Phones steer. They do not spawn cloud work.

Your phone is a great remote control. It is a terrible credit furnace.

Build Your Own MCP Relay

• Cloudflare Worker + MCP: your own relay.
• Phone UI in. Instructions to your agents. Results back.
• Keep the app you like. Own the plumbing.
• Workers AI: 10k free neurons/day, 50+ open-source models — developers.cloudflare.com/workers-ai/models

"Too complicated for 10 minutes" = exactly complicated enough for a weekend.

Expect Things To Change. Always.

• Days ago: Grok Bot started routing to third-party models (Claude Opus 5.5, Midjourney, Suno).
• Bundles, clocks, pricing keep moving.
• Spend what you hold. Re-check your stack monthly.
• Then stop renting and start building agents.
