# Grok Query Scrape Use this skill to run a repeatable Grok automation workflow: - Load Netscape-format cookies (for logged-in session reuse) - Open Grok in a browser session - Submit the prompt exactly as provided - Wait for answer generation to stabilize - Return and save raw output only (no parsing) Language guides: - Chinese guide: [references/usage_zh.md](references/usage_zh.md) - English guide: [references/usage_en.md](references/usage_en.md) ## Workflow 1. Install runtime dependencies when missing: ```powershell pip install patchright ``` 2. Prepare a cookie file in Netscape format (example: `H:\cookies\grok.txt`). 3. Run the script: ```powershell python E:\projectHome\skill_grok\skill\grok-query-scrape\scripts\query_grok.py ` --cookie-file H:\cookies\grok.txt ` --prompt "Find top 10 AI productivity tweets from the last 24 hours." ` --output-dir E:\ ` --basename grok_ai_top10 ` --wait-seconds 240 ``` 4. Check outputs: - `<stdout>`: Grok response text (verbatim capture from `main`) - `<basename>_raw.txt`: same raw Grok response text saved to file - `<basename>_meta.json`: run metadata and paths ## Script Use [query_grok.py](scripts/query_grok.py) for execution. Key flags: - `--cookie-file`: Netscape cookie txt path (required) - `--prompt`: inline prompt - `--prompt-file`: prompt text file (alternative to `--prompt`) - `--output-dir`: output folder (default `.`) - `--basename`: output filename prefix (default `grok_result`) - `--wait-seconds`: max wait for response stabilization (default `180`) - `--headless`: run browser headless - `--new-chat`: send `Ctrl+J` before query to reduce contamination (enabled by default) ## Prompting Guidance This skill forwards the prompt as-is, so put all constraints directly into your prompt text. ## Failure Handling If the output format is not what you need: 1. Keep `_raw.txt` as ground truth. 2. Tighten the prompt and retry. 3. Keep `--new-chat` enabled for isolation. 4. Increase `--wait-seconds` when generation is long. If login fails: 1. Refresh cookie file from a valid browser session. 2. Keep domain/path/secure flags intact in Netscape format. 3. Retry with `--headless` disabled to inspect behavior. ### scripts/ - [query_grok.py](scripts/query_grok.py): submit prompt, wait for answer, return/save raw/meta only.
