Let Claude Code hand X research to Grok Bot mid-task
Riley Brown demoed Claude Code calling Grok Bot through a webhook skill whenever it needs current X posts, then finishing the original task with the answer.
Explain it simply
Two AI tools work together here. When one is building something and needs to know what people are saying on X right now, it asks the other, waits for the answer, and then finishes the job.
What was done
Riley Brown showed Claude Code calling Grok Bot through a webhook, using a skill named grokbot-webhook, whenever it needs research on X posts.
Claude waits for Grok Bot's answer, then carries on. In the demo, Claude Code sends Grok Bot a research task and turns the answer into a page.
How it went
A demo video plus a setup guide, with no business metrics. One reply says they set it up in about 30 minutes.
- Promotional: the author's company, Agent Native, publishes the guide, which requires a sign-in.
- Several replies argue the reverse works better: Grok Bot orchestrating, Claude Code doing the work.
- Open questions went unanswered: how accurate the research is, and whether the Bot can act on the X account or only read it.
Prompt
Skill: grokbot-research
When you need current X posts or discussion about a topic, POST the question to [webhook URL], wait for the reply, cite the post links it returns, then continue the original task.
Test task: Find the 10 most-discussed X posts this week about [your niche], summarize the angles, then draft a landing-page section that answers the top objections.Adapted from the demo; the full setup guide is behind a sign-in.
Setup notes
- In Grok Bot, create a routine that starts from a webhook. Each one gets its own URL and key, and the Bot receives the request body.
- Decide how the answer gets back to Claude Code; the demo's guide covers this behind a sign-in.
- Add a Claude Code skill (for example .claude/skills/grokbot-research/SKILL.md) with the instructions above.
- Keep the webhook URL secret; treat it like a password.
- Spot-check the cited posts before publishing anything built on them.
