What they did

A Google software engineer doesn't choose between agents: his Grok Bot hands coding tasks to Claude Code running on his Mac and reports back to him when they're done.

How it went

Grok Bot delegates coding to Claude Code on his Mac and sends him the result.

Worth knowing

  • X post by @thecsguy (Oct 24, 2026 Denver time): his Grok Bot hands coding to Claude Code on his Mac and reports back. No details on a specific task or result.
  • Running agents on your own computer gives them access to your files; limit it to the project folder.

Prompt

Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.

When I give you a coding task for [repo], open Claude Code on my computer in that folder, give it the task with clear acceptance criteria, wait for it to finish, run the tests, and report back what changed, whether tests pass and anything it couldn't do. Don't push or deploy without asking me.

Recommended
