Grok Bot computer: all outbound non-HTTPS traffic blocked since Oct 1 (MySQL, SSH, IMAP/SMTP, FTP time out)

Hey @shoplytics.de, thanks for the report and the port tests, and thanks @Aadam, @NavyWings and @Hopeless for confirming.

This isn’t a restriction on your plan or account, and it isn’t intended. Since a recent change, some Grok Bot computers can only make outbound HTTPS connections on port 443, so database, mail, SSH, FTP and plain HTTP connections time out. The team is aware and is tracking it.

There’s no reliable workaround on the computer itself yet. “Route traffic through this computer” won’t help, because it only covers the browser. HTTPS-based endpoints (like the ones you set up) and cloning git repos over HTTPS instead of SSH do still work. There’s no need to reset your computer.

We’ll share updates here!
