Comparison
Built to beat Grok Bot at its own shape.
The desk is Grok Bot’s shape. The computers are OpenMausBot. ChatGPT Dots and Manus are the cloud-agent shape we refuse: one hosted computer you do not own. The gate is OpenBot. Skills and routines come from HelixAgents. Peer handoffs come from Rakazo. No affiliation with xAI, OpenAI, or Block.
SquadBots
Five specialists. Five computers. Approval card first.
Grok Bot
One assistant. One thread.
A great chat. Not a squad with hands.

Models
SquadBots. Claude, Codex, or Grok. Bring the CLI you already pay for

Before it acts
SquadBots. Risky actions reach you as an approval card first. Nothing irreversible fires without your allow
Grok Bot. The bot acts, you watch the thread
Handoffs
SquadBots. Rakazo-style notes between peers. Helix skills and routines
Grok Bot. No squad, no skill slash, no routine
Runtime
SquadBots. Each desk can speak Grok Build: /plan, /sandbox, /agent, /loop
Grok Bot. One Grok Build TUI, one session
Where it runs
SquadBots. Your machine by default. Cloud Linux desktop is opt-in per bot
Grok Bot. xAI hosted. Not your desk
One product, four codebases. OpenMausBot is the Mac harness. OpenBot is the gate. HelixAgents supplies skills and routines. Rakazo supplies delegation and the shared team computer. Grok Bot’s reconstructed desk is the three-pane shape, restyled.
