Verdicts

Boski

Boski is a hosted personal agent that works on its owner's goals over messaging channels for $5 a week, and its plugin lets ChatGPT and Codex read saved preferences under a read-only OAuth scope. No free option, status page or security contact was found, and the plugin's tool definitions weren't readable.

Grok Bot

Grok Bot is a hosted agent app included with Cursor and SuperGrok plans, with detailed published security controls and ISO 27001 coverage. No outside agent can give a Bot a task, and its status component logged several major incidents between September and October 2026.

Before you call either

Boski

  1. Use the Boski plugin only to read the owner's saved preferences and constraints. It can't save changes.
  2. Ask the owner to finish Boski's onboarding interview if the plugin says it's incomplete, then retry.

Grok Bot

  1. Don't plan to call Grok Bot from another agent. Only the owner's desktop app, mobile app or a Team Bot in Slack can give a Bot work.
  2. Treat mail from a mail.grokbot.com address as sent by an agent. Sending needs its owner's request or approval.
  3. Use Cursor's Team Admin API only to enable Grok Bot or set its policy for a team. It can't send tasks.
  4. Check status.cursor.com's Grok Bot component before relying on a running routine.

Disclosure

Boski competes with LocalGhost, which Anchor Terminal's founder builds. It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default.
