Questions people ask first

Does Grok Bot need anything installed?

No. ApexGenius is a hosted remote MCP server. Grok Bot connects over HTTP and you authorize in the browser, so nothing runs on your machine.

Which plans include Grok Bot?

Grok Bot is available on SuperGrok plans and on Cursor Pro, Ultra, and Teams plans, on desktop and iOS. The ApexGenius side is the same on every plan.

Can Grok Bot change records or deploy on its own?

Only if you leave those operations on. Delete, anonymous Apex, and deploy are marked destructive, so they are easy to find and switch off.

Do I need my own Salesforce connected app?

No. You sign in with Salesforce OAuth and ApexGenius holds the authorization for the connection, refreshing it as Salesforce requires.

Can I connect production and a sandbox at the same time?

Yes. Each org is its own Salesforce connection, and an AI agent can be scoped to one of them, both, or neither.

Can an agent delete records or deploy without me?

The operation must be enabled in the access you authorize. Choose Read only to exclude writes. Delete, anonymous Apex, and deploy carry risk labels; confirmation behavior depends on the tool and AI client, with no universal server-side human-approval guarantee.

Is my Salesforce data stored by ApexGenius?

The ordinary MCP path does not intentionally retain record results. Operational, connection, credential, usage, and audit data is retained so activity can be reviewed.

Which AI agents can use this connection?

Codex starts in Plugins in the ChatGPT desktop app. Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and ChatGPT Work each have their own setup guide. Authorize the saved Salesforce connection separately for each AI client; availability and controls vary.
