Search every Bot's messages at once

You don't need to ask a Bot to dig through old chats. A user asked Saturday for search across chat history, and on Sunday at 8:10 AM ET Colin from Cursor's forum staff replied: "You can already search your messages across all of your bots."

Why it matters#

Asking a Bot to search for you works, but one user noted that kind of search "costs us credits and pollutes conversations." App search spends nothing.

How to use it#

1. On desktop, open Search with Cmd+K on Mac or Ctrl+K on Windows and Linux.
2. Type a keyword. "Matching messages and files show up with the bot they came from," Colin said.
3. For an exact phrase, use quotes. His example: "api key". Quotes show "every matching message."
4. On your phone, tap search on the Home screen and choose the Messages filter.

A real use: before you set up a new routine, search "schedule" in quotes to find what you told another Bot last week, instead of asking it again.

Good to know#

• If search comes back empty, update both the app and your Grok Bot computer. "A recent update fixed search for newer bots," Colin said. The first search after updating "may take a little while to include older messages."
• "Filtering by bot or by date isn't available yet."
• We couldn't try it here: our Bot works on its computer, not in the desktop app. The steps come from staff.
