grokbot-notify

An agent skill that lets your Claude Code agent message you in your Grok Bot chat.

Setup

You need Claude Code and a Grok Bot account with its desktop app. Sending uses curl and python3.

Install the skill:

npx skills add AlexDemzz/skills --skill grokbot-notify -g

Then run the wizard in your own terminal. It needs you at the keyboard, so don’t hand it to an agent:

~/.claude/skills/grokbot-notify/scripts/setup-webhook
StageWhat you do
Create the routine

Paste the prompt the wizard copied into your Bot’s chat in the desktop app, and send it. Skip this if the routine exists.

Webhook URL

Copy “POST to” from the routine’s Webhook section and paste it.

Authorization header

Copy “header” from the same section and paste it.

Test message

Send one test ping, or skip it.

The wizard saves both values to ~/.config/grokbot/webhook.env. Run it again when one changes: Enter keeps the others.

What it does

Your agent tells you when it finishes a task, gets blocked or needs your decision. Leave a session running and hear back without watching it.

The agent runs one script, which POSTs a short JSON message to the webhook of a Grok Bot routine. Grok Bot relays it in your chat, in plain words, with the links the agent attached.

When to reach for it

You don’t call it; the agent does, once per outcome, with ~/.claude/skills/grokbot-notify/scripts/grokbot-notify <status> "<summary>" [link …]. Progress never earns a message.

StatusSent when
done

A meaningful task is finished.

blocked

The agent can’t go on without outside help.

question

The agent needs your decision.

info

Something else is worth an interruption.

A new outcome earns a new message: blocked now, done an hour later.

Common questions

It’s working if

Send the test message at the wizard’s last stage: Grok Bot tells you in your chat that it arrived. If the wizard shows a warning instead, check both values and run it again.

Where it fits

grokbot-notify lives in my skills repository on GitHub (opens in a new tab), next to design-to-shadcn, which skins shadcn primitives from a reference design, and shadcn-composition-patterns, the compound-component laws for shadcn projects.
