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 WordPress presence with Postiz.
Own Cloud Computer
Every Bot gets a persistent cloud machine with a terminal. Postiz runs there, so your WordPress 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 WordPress content without being asked twice.
Approvals Built In
Bots ask before changing external systems. Review the WordPress 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 WordPress 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

Message Your Bot

Grok Bot: Routine saved: thursday-wordpress.WordPress rules Grok Bot follows
Grok Bot reads the WordPress rules from postiz integrations:settings before scheduling. These are the ones that most often change what gets published.
- ✓type is required and must be post or page. Say "page" for static content like a press kit or about page.
- ✓title is required (at least 2 characters). Grok Bot pulls it from the first heading of your draft when you do not specify one.
- ✓Featured images (main_image) must be uploaded through postiz upload first; the Bot then passes the id and path.
- ✓Postiz publishes to the WordPress site you connected. Connect each site separately if you run more than one.
Grok Bot and WordPress: frequently asked questions
How do I publish to WordPress from Grok Bot?
Add the Postiz plugin with /add-plugin postiz and store your POSTIZ_API_KEY as a Bot secret. Connect your WordPress site in Postiz, then give the Bot a draft. It sets the title, picks post or page, uploads a featured image, and schedules publishing. You approve before it goes live.
Can Grok Bot create WordPress pages as well as posts?
Yes. The type field accepts post or page. Ask for a page when you want static content such as a press kit, and a post for blog articles that appear in your feed. The Bot sets the type from your wording and asks if it is unclear.
Can Grok Bot set a WordPress featured image?
Yes. Point the Bot at an image and it uploads it through postiz upload, then sets main_image with the returned id and path. WordPress uses it as the featured image in your theme and social previews. Raw paths and external URLs are not accepted by Postiz.
Does Grok Bot work with self-hosted WordPress?
Yes. Postiz connects to WordPress sites through the WordPress connection you set up in Postiz, whether the site is self-hosted or on WordPress.com with the right plan. Grok Bot only talks to Postiz, so your WordPress credentials stay in Postiz, not in the Bot.
Can Grok Bot publish to WordPress and share the post on social media?
Yes. Ask for the WordPress post plus a LinkedIn and X announcement in one request. The Bot schedules the article first and the social posts afterwards, each with platform-appropriate copy. Everything appears in your Postiz calendar for review before publishing.
