Where does the bug appear (feature/product)? Grok Bot Describe the Bug what is this about? I have grok signed into my claude cli an dmy codex cli…been sneding jobs around as needed for certain tasks for a month..but now today: It’s a workflow restriction, not a technical problem: repository edits must go through Cursor cloud agents. Claude CLI works on my computer, but I can’t use it for those edits. My earlier successful test was inconsistent with that restriction—not proof of an exemption. Steps to Reproduce install and log into claude cli on the bots computer and aks it to modify your website usuign claude code..it refuses saing its a workflow proplme, but wont’ fix it or provide any possible solutins bvesides forcin to go through cursor cloud. Expected Behavior expect it to listen to me and do what i told it to instead of flat our refusals to use a tool that it uses no problem regularly. Operating System Windows 10/11 Version Information Version: 0.79.2 Built: 2026-11-05T07:54:25.505Z Release Track: stable OS: win32 For AI issues: which model did you use? any. Does this stop you from using Cursor Yes - Cursor is unusable

Just want to add here, I posted this yesterday and Cursor’s bot immediately routed it to the black hole of the “Accounts” section. This is messed up. I did not sign up for Cursor, do not want my stuff going to Cursor cloud (whatever that is), and do not want to grant even more access to even more tools now. No notifications, no warning, just a switch and “yeah, that’s how it works now”. Seriously nutty.

What has changed since the beginning of November that now causes Grok to refuse to write code for me and forces me to use Cursor instead?

At lease a couple free usage resets. I used at least 30% of my allowance trying to convince grok to do what it used to do no problem.

If I’m forced to use Cursor, I don’t see the point of having Grok Bot. For me, Grok Bot was great because I could just input a task and it would handle everything on its own; now, I have to break things down across additional Cursor instances and pass tasks back and forth which just means burning extra tokens for the exact same work. I don’t see the sense in working this way.

Same here, and I hit the cursor limit and now I simply CANNOT edit code via grok bot. My god, that’s absurd. It broke my entire workflow.

It is absolute disaster, at first they got us in grok bot because 200$ subscription limits are gone fast, and grok bot limits were independable and good, and now when grok bot can’t code we limited to cursor usage limits again. For 200$ that token limits of cursor are not enough even for 2 weeks of normal programmers use. It is awful, please revert it and allow grok bot to code as soon as possible!!!

The plan is to stay that way? What’s the point to get worst then better???

exactly same issue. just start from few hours ago. They denied me using claude or codex CLI. forcing me to use cursor web service to use those claude or codex model

When are y’all going to fix this? And if this will be the new behavior going forward I want a refund and my account closed and deleted.

Grok refuses to submit code unless its on cursoor cloud?

I have my repo on my own computer, not even on Grok Bot’s and it still refuses to use the Claude CLI on my computer to make changes. Even when I have explicitly asked it to do so. Is there any word on a fix for this?
