Although the Grok CLI is powerful, you need to be aware of the following things and limitations when using it:
1. Network dependency:
- AI-driven features require networking to call Grok-3 models
- Basic file operations and command execution support for offline use
2. Competence requirements:
- Requires read and write permissions to the files and directories being operated on
- Administrator privileges are required for system-level operations
3. Environmental dependence:
- Requires Node.js runtime environment
- Some of the features depend on the relevant tools (e.g. git, npm, etc.) being installed correctly.
4. Operating system support:
- Support for Windows, macOS and Linux
- Some commands vary on different systems
5. Commissioning recommendations:
- You can use the
grok --debugView Detailed Log - Complex operations are recommended to be tested on a small scale first
6. Performance considerations:
- Batch operation of large projects may be slow
- Network requests may be delayed
