Post to Twitch from Grok Bot

Grok Bot can post to Twitch chat through the Postiz plugin. Add the plugin to a Bot, store your Postiz API key as a secret, and say what to announce. The Bot sends a plain chat message or a colored announcement, schedules it in Postiz around your stream times, and can repeat it on a routine from its cloud computer.

What is Grok Bot?

Grok Bot is the always-on AI teammate product from xAI and Cursor. You create named Bots, give each one a job, and they work 24/7 on their own persistent cloud computer — with a browser, a filesystem, and a terminal — pinging you only when they need approval.

Grok Bot is not the Grok chatbot. Grok is the assistant you chat with on X and grok.com. Grok Bot is a separate app for delegating real, multi-step work — like running your Twitch presence with Postiz.

💻

Own Cloud Computer

Every Bot gets a persistent cloud machine with a terminal. Postiz runs there, so your Twitch posts go out even when your laptop is closed.

🔁

Routines

Turn any task into a routine that runs on a schedule. Your Bot drafts, schedules, and reports on Twitch content without being asked twice.

🛡️

Approvals Built In

Bots ask before changing external systems. Review the Twitch posts your Bot prepared in Postiz, approve, and it publishes.

How Postiz Works with Grok Bot

Postiz is listed on the Grok Bot plugin marketplace. Add it to a Bot and the Postiz skill, CLI, and command reference are installed on its cloud computer — the Bot can then manage your Twitch workflow on its own.

✓Type /add-plugin postiz in a Bot chat, or add it from the Plugins sidebar
✓Store your POSTIZ_API_KEY as a Bot secret when prompted
✓The Bot reads the bundled SKILL.md and learns every Postiz command
✓Works in every Bot on your shared workspace, on desktop and iPhone
✓Approvals keep a human in the loop before anything is published

Grok Bot

# 1. Add the plugin to your Bot
/add-plugin postiz

# 2. Store your Postiz API key
#    as a secret when prompted

# 3. Ask your Bot to verify
You: Find my Twitch channel in Postiz

Bot: Running postiz integrations:list
  Found your Twitch integration.
  All Postiz commands are ready.

How Grok Bot runs Twitch on a routine

Your Bot reads the Postiz skill, discovers your Twitch integration, and handles the entire posting workflow — from content creation to scheduling — on its own cloud computer.

🧠

Message Your Bot

Desktop, iPhone, or a group chat

Send a message to your Bot from the desktop app or your iPhone. It runs on its own cloud computer, so it picks up your message, discovers your Twitch account via Postiz, uploads your media, and schedules the post — then asks you to approve before it goes live.

Grok Bot

You: Post to Twitch about our new
  feature launch, schedule for tomorrow
  at 9am

Bot: Got it! Here's the plan:
  1. Find your Twitch integration
  2. Compose your post content
  3. Schedule for tomorrow 9:00 AM

  Done! Post scheduled successfully.
  Post ID: abc-123

🧠

Routines

Recurring work on a schedule

Save the task as a routine. Your Bot runs it on a schedule from the cloud, checks for new content, and posts it to Twitch automatically — no manual trigger needed.

Grok Bot routine

Routine: daily-twitch-posts
Schedule: Weekdays at 9:00 AM

Instructions:
  Check ~/content/posts on your cloud
  computer for new .txt files. For
  each one, read the content and
  schedule a post to Twitch for
  today at noon via Postiz. Move
  posted files to ~/content/published
  and send me a summary.

Also Works with Claude Code

Postiz works with any AI agent that can run commands or call MCP tools — you ask, the agent does the work. That includes Anthropic's Claude Code. See the Claude Code guide for Twitch, the guide for any AI agent, or connect over the Postiz MCP server.

Claude Code

by Anthropic

Claude reads the Postiz skill so it knows what it can do, then autonomously discovers your Twitch integration, picks the right message type and color, and sends the message.

Claude Code

> Send a purple announcement to Twitch:
  "Stream starting now! Let's build!"

Claude: Done! Scheduled on Twitch for
  tomorrow at 9:00 AM.

Cross-post Twitch content to other platforms

Announce your stream on Twitch and other platforms in a single request. Each platform gets its own settings.

Example

> Post "Excited to announce our new feature!" to
  Twitch and LinkedIn tomorrow at 9am, then schedule
  a daily tip on Twitch every weekday at 10am

Grok Bot: Done! Scheduled:
  - Twitch + LinkedIn: tomorrow 9:00 AM

Twitch rules Grok Bot follows

Grok Bot reads the Twitch rules from postiz integrations:settings before scheduling. These are the ones that most often change what gets published.

✓messageType defaults to message. Say "announcement" when you want the highlighted announcement style.
✓announcementColor only applies to announcements and accepts primary, blue, green, orange, or purple.
✓Twitch chat messages are limited to 500 characters. Keep announcements short so they read well in chat.
✓The Postiz Twitch integration posts to the channel you connected. Connect the channel in Postiz before asking the Bot.

Grok Bot and Twitch: frequently asked questions

How do I post to Twitch chat from Grok Bot?

Add the Postiz plugin with /add-plugin postiz and store your POSTIZ_API_KEY as a Bot secret. Connect your Twitch channel in Postiz, then tell the Bot what to say and when. It sets messageType and, for announcements, a color, and schedules the message. You approve before it posts.

Can Grok Bot send Twitch announcements instead of plain messages?

Yes. Say "announcement" and the Bot sets messageType to announcement, which Twitch shows as a highlighted banner in chat. Add a color such as purple or green and it sets announcementColor. Plain messages use the default message type.

Can Grok Bot post to Twitch chat before I go live?

Yes. Schedule a message for a few minutes before your stream and the Bot sends it through Postiz at that time. Save it as a routine for your regular stream days and the Bot posts the reminder every time without being asked, from its own cloud computer.

Which colors can Grok Bot use for Twitch announcements?

primary, blue, green, orange, and purple. primary uses your channel's accent color. Mention the color in your request and the Bot sets announcementColor; it only applies when messageType is announcement, so plain chat messages ignore it.

Can Grok Bot post the same update to Twitch, Kick, and Discord?

Yes. Ask for the announcement across all three and the Bot schedules a Twitch announcement, a Kick chat message, and a Discord post in one request, each with platform-appropriate wording. Everything lands in your Postiz calendar for review before it goes out.
