testingcatalog · x · 2026-08-12
According to leaks, xAI has introduced an early beta of its new agent, Grok Bot, to Grok Heavy, Cursor Ultra, and Cursor Team Premium users.
Reportedly, users can create and run custom bots to execute real-world tasks. These bots operate their own dedicated computer environments with access to a wide range of tools. They support asynchronous workflows, meaning users can assign a task, shut down their computer, and the bot will continue working autonomously.
