Wrok is a modern, portable client for grok.com built on WebView2. It works entirely
without API access and uses the regular sign-in inside the embedded browser.
Features:
- Up to ten freely assignable macros on the hotkeys Ctrl+1 through Ctrl+0. Macro text may
contain variables: {input} prompts for a value before sending, plus {date}, {time},
{username} and {clipboard}.
- Boss key Ctrl+Space instantly hides and restores the window.
- Media viewer: images and videos from Grok open in a separate window, placed on the left
at full screen height while Wrok fills the remaining space. Videos play in an endless
loop. Ctrl+Shift+P opens a copied media address, or the last media item if none.
- Automatic window minimization after a configurable idle period.
- Window size, position and maximized state are remembered.
- Automatic adaptation to the Windows dark and light modes, including tray icon and
title bar.
- Selective clearing of browsing data, either cache only or everything.
- Optional start with Windows.
