Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Use Grok AI to fetch real-time information, latest news, and external knowledge that may not be in your training data.
Before using this skill, ensure the following: OpenClaw browser enabled β verify with: openclaw browser status Logged in to grok.com β the user must have already logged in to grok.com in the OpenClaw browser. This skill cannot handle login flows automatically. Grok account β a free-tier Grok account is sufficient for basic queries; SuperGrok is not required.
Activate when the user: Needs real-time information (news, events, product status) Wants reasoning and synthesis beyond what web_search can provide Needs multi-turn conversational research Asks to verify uncertain knowledge against up-to-date sources
# Check if grok.com is already open openclaw browser tabs If a grok.com tab already exists, directly switch to it: openclaw browser focus <existing-grok-tab-id> If not, open a new tab: openclaw browser open https://grok.com Both return a target id β keep this for all subsequent calls.
openclaw browser snapshot After taking a snapshot, check for two things before proceeding: Popups / banners blocking the page (see Step 2a) The input box (see Step 2b)
Common obstructions: "Upgrade to SuperGrok" banner Login prompts Cookie consent dialogs If you see any popup or banner in the snapshot: # Find the close/dismiss button ref from snapshot, then click it openclaw browser click <close-button-ref> # Verify it's gone openclaw browser snapshot Or try pressing Escape to dismiss overlays: openclaw browser press Escape
The Grok input box is a contenteditable div (ProseMirror editor) at the bottom of the page. In snapshot output, look for a paragraph element with placeholder text such as "How can I help you today?" (or its localized equivalent). If you can't find the input box: # Scroll the input box into view (if you know its ref) openclaw browser scrollintoview <ref> # Or re-snapshot to check openclaw browser snapshot
openclaw browser type <input-ref> "What is the latest news about AI?"
Important: Grok uses Enter for newline, NOT for sending. You must click the send button (the circular β¬ icon button to the right of the input box). # After typing, snapshot to find the send button ref openclaw browser snapshot # Click the send button β look for the "Submit" button near the input box openclaw browser click <send-button-ref> Do NOT use press Enter or --submit β they only insert a newline in Grok's input box.
While Grok is generating, a "Stop response" button replaces the voice button next to the input box. When it disappears, the response is complete. A "Regenerate" button appearing confirms completion. Important: Do NOT use wait --text-gone or wait --fn with long timeouts β the browser tool call has a timeout limit and will fail before the wait finishes. Use short waits + snapshot polling instead. Poll until response is complete: # 1. Wait 10 seconds openclaw browser wait --time 10000 # 2. Snapshot and check for completion openclaw browser snapshot # Look for "Regenerate" button β response is done # If "Stop response" button is still visible β still generating, repeat from step 1 Repeat the wait-then-snapshot cycle until you see completion indicators or 5 minutes have elapsed: Done: "Regenerate", "Read aloud", "Copy" buttons appear Still generating: "Stop response" button is present, or content is still growing Timeout: If 5 minutes pass with no completion, stop polling and inform the user that the Grok response timed out Note on localized UI: Button text depends on Grok UI language: English: "Stop response" / "Regenerate" Chinese: "εζ’樑εεεΊ" / "Regenerate"
If the snapshot contains img elements in the response area (e.g. from Grok's Imagine feature), extract the image URL: openclaw browser evaluate --fn "(el) => el.src" --ref <img-ref>
Stay in the same tab to maintain conversation context. Grok understands follow-up questions that reference earlier messages. # 1. Make sure you're on the correct tab openclaw browser focus <target-id> # 2. Snapshot to find the input box (placeholder changes to "Ask anything" in follow-ups) openclaw browser snapshot # 3. Type your follow-up question openclaw browser type <input-ref> "What about tomorrow?" # 4. Snapshot to find the "Submit" button and click it openclaw browser snapshot openclaw browser click <send-button-ref> # 5. Wait and poll for completion (repeat until "Regenerate" appears) openclaw browser wait --time 10000 openclaw browser snapshot Note: The input box and submit button refs change between turns β always snapshot to get fresh refs before typing or clicking.

Quick fact check: "What is the capital of France?" Latest news: "What are the top tech news today?" Real-time info: "What's the current status of [event]?" Complex research: Break into multiple queries in the same session
Session persistence: Stay in the same tab for multi-turn conversations Must click send: Grok's Enter key is newline, always click the β¬ send button to submit Long responses: May need to scroll down and take additional snapshots Pre-login: User should be logged in to grok.com beforehand for best results Screenshot: Use openclaw browser screenshot if you need visual confirmation
For simpler queries, consider using web_search tool first (faster, no browser needed). Use Grok when you need: Reasoning and synthesis Multi-step analysis Conversational follow-up Complex explanations
