Build Remote Agent

Mobile remote for your local Grok Build and CLI sessions on iOS, Android, and Mac

PlayableOpen source

Description

A cross-platform remote control tool for xAI's Grok Build, allowing users to steer local CLI sessions from mobile devices and spatial computing headsets. It includes an MCP server (gbr-mcp) that enables other models like Claude to diagnose, inject, and control terminal sessions through a unified Bot API.

Why this is interesting: A highly practical bridge between xAI's developer environment, mobile hardware, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Prompt 2

All coding via https://grokbuildremote.com + existing gbr-relay (gbr/1 at https://gbr-relay.ekobrott.workers.dev). Do not use https://grokremoteagent.com. Drive Grok Heavy on the Dev PC: grok 1.0.5 logged in https://grok.com, default grok-4.6. grok agent serve is 127.0.0.1:2419 (never print the serve secret). Local gbr-agent Bot API is 127.0.0.1:8788 — use GET /health and GET /v1/status (not /status). Status first on every job, then inject via local bot or grok -p. Vault first for mailbox keys. Never print mailbox keys or the serve secret. Loop: diagnose → open/attach → lock → inject → wait idle → harvest excerpt. Phone is spectator, not orchestrator.
