What Does "Teach a Task" Do in Grok Bot?

Short answer

Teach a task lets you show a Bot how you do something in a browser. You record the workflow once, and the Bot turns it into a draft skill that you review and test. It’s in the + menu at the left of the message box, under Attach files.

As of Oct 26, 2026 (Grok Bot desktop app v0.75.8).

Steps

Click + in the composer and choose Teach a task.
Do the workflow once, start to finish. xAI’s docs say a recording can be up to ten minutes.
Read the draft skill the Bot writes. Add the rules it can’t see, like “ask me before you submit”. Then test it on a safe example.

Tips

Keep secrets off screen. Sign in before you record, or take over the computer for the login.
It’s good for websites with no connector, like a booking system or supplier portal. The Bot follows your steps in its own browser.
xAI says the rollout may be gradual, so you might not see it yet.
