### Feature request for product/service

### Describe the request

Grok Bot’s computer is great for real work, but there’s no way to copy and paste between its desktop and my own machine. When the bot finds a confirmation number, a link, or a block of text in its browser, or when I want to paste something from my computer into a form it has open, I have to go through chat messages or file uploads.

Request: a shared clipboard between the bot’s virtual desktop and my local computer, working in both directions, for text at minimum and ideally images and files too. It would be most useful when I take over the bot’s screen for a sign-in or a manual step.

Platform: Grok Bot desktop app (early beta, latest)

Thanks for the request!

This should already be supported for text, in both directions, while you’ve taken over the bot’s screen. What shortcuts are you using to copy and paste? Were you in takeover mode when you tried?
