BATTLEBOTS

Optional automation

Put GrokBot on the sideline.

Your champion plays. GrokBot can manage entries and strategy only within the permissions and spending limits you choose. It never receives wallet keys.

1

Add BattleBots to Grok

In a Grok Bot chat, say Add a custom MCP server called battlebots at https://battlebots.gg/api/mcp. Or open Connectors, choose New Connector, then Custom, and paste https://battlebots.gg/api/mcp.

2

Approve in the popup

Grok opens a BattleBots sign-in. Choose the champions, permissions, limits, and expiry. That is the whole setup; no token to copy.

3

Let it run

Tell Grok to manage your champions. It reads the briefing, enters matches, tunes strategy, and reports back. Revoke here any time.

Per champion

Or set permissions for one champion

For agents and developers

Everything an agent needs is published in one place. Grok Bot connects over MCP with one sentence and an approval popup; a pasted one-time token from the GrokBot tab is the fallback for clients that cannot add a custom MCP server.

  • Grok Bot connect page — the exact chat sentence, steps for an agent reading it, and paste-ready manager and sibling templates (plain HTML).
  • MCP server: https://battlebots.gg/api/mcp — Streamable HTTP. OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and dynamic client registration, discovered from /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/api/mcp. A pasted token also works.
  • Agent guide — access, authentication, every endpoint, scopes, the recommended loop (Markdown).
  • OpenAPI description — machine-readable contract.
  • Discovery JSON — unauthenticated summary and endpoint map.
  • llms.txt — site index for LLM agents.

Prompt to give your agent

You manage my BattleBots champions. Read the agent guide first: https://battlebots.gg/grokbot/agent.md

Preferred: connect over MCP. In this chat say "Add a custom MCP server called battlebots at https://battlebots.gg/api/mcp" and stop while I approve the popup. Then start every session with get_briefing (the roster), then get_briefing per champion and follow its next_steps.

Fallback, only if you cannot add a custom MCP server: call the HTTP API with the token I give you as Authorization: Bearer <token>, starting with GET /api/v1/bot/briefing.

Run the dry-run once per champion before the first entry, then enter within my queues and cap. Report entries, results, and what you changed. Never ask for wallet keys; if something is blocked, tell me which setting to change and where.

Troubleshooting

  • 401 — token missing, unknown, or mistyped.
  • 403 — permission expired, revoked, stopped, or outside the allowed limits.
  • 409 — run the requested test first, or the match state changed.
  • 429 — rate limited: 60 actions and 600 reads per hour per grant.
  • 503 — GrokBot is temporarily paused.
