10x-chat — AI Agent Skill

Use 10x-chat to send prompts to web-based AI agents (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok, NotebookLM) via automated browser sessions. The browser uses a persisted Chrome profile, so the user only needs to login once.

Installation

No install needed. Always use @latest to get the newest version:

npx 10x-chat@latest --version    # check current version

Prefer npx over bunx — bunx has symlink conflicts when running multiple providers in parallel.

When to use

• Stuck on a bug: ask another model for a fresh perspective.
• Code review: send PR diff to GPT / Claude / Gemini for cross-review.
• Cross-validation: compare answers from multiple models.
• Knowledge gaps: leverage a model with different training data / reasoning.

Commands

# Login (one-time per provider — opens browser for user to authenticate)
npx 10x-chat@latest login chatgpt
npx 10x-chat@latest login gemini
npx 10x-chat@latest login claude
npx 10x-chat@latest login grok
npx 10x-chat@latest login notebooklm

# Chat with a single provider
npx 10x-chat@latest chat -p "Review this code for bugs" --provider chatgpt --file "src/**/*.ts"

# Chat with file context
npx 10x-chat@latest chat --provider gemini --file "path/to/prompt.md" -p "Complete this task"

# Dry run (preview the prompt bundle without sending)
npx 10x-chat@latest chat --dry-run -p "Debug this error" --file src/

# Copy bundle to clipboard (manual paste fallback)
npx 10x-chat@latest chat --copy -p "Explain this" --file "src/**"

# Check recent sessions
npx 10x-chat@latest status

# View a session's response
npx 10x-chat@latest session <id> --render

# NotebookLM — manage notebooks & sources
npx 10x-chat@latest notebooklm list                       # List notebooks
npx 10x-chat@latest notebooklm create "My Research"        # Create notebook
npx 10x-chat@latest notebooklm add-url <id> https://...    # Add URL source
npx 10x-chat@latest notebooklm add-file <id> ./paper.pdf   # Upload file source
npx 10x-chat@latest notebooklm sources <id>                # List sources
npx 10x-chat@latest notebooklm summarize <id>              # AI summary
npx 10x-chat@latest chat -p "Summarize" --provider notebooklm  # Chat with NotebookLM

Multi-provider workflow (sequential)

Run providers sequentially (not in parallel — parallel bunx causes symlink conflicts):

# Login all providers first
npx 10x-chat@latest login gemini
npx 10x-chat@latest login claude
npx 10x-chat@latest login chatgpt
npx 10x-chat@latest login grok

# Then run each sequentially
npx 10x-chat@latest chat --provider gemini --headed -p "Your prompt" --file context.md
npx 10x-chat@latest chat --provider claude --headed -p "Your prompt" --file context.md
npx 10x-chat@latest chat --provider chatgpt --headed -p "Your prompt" --file context.md
npx 10x-chat@latest chat --provider grok --headed -p "Your prompt" --file context.md

Tips

• Always use @latest: ensures you get the newest fixes (e.g., Grok UI changes break selectors frequently).
• Use --headed for Grok and ChatGPT — improves session reliability.
• Login first: Run npx 10x-chat@latest login <provider> once per provider. Sessions persist in ~/.10x-chat/profiles/.
• Login + chat sequentially: If sessions expire, run login immediately before chat in the same shell.
• Keep file sets small: fewer files + a focused prompt = better answers.
• Don’t send secrets: exclude .env, key files, auth tokens from --file patterns.
• Use --dry-run to preview what will be sent before committing to a run.
• Timeouts: Default is 5 minutes. Use --timeout <ms> for long-thinking models.
• NotebookLM: Add sources first (notebooklm add-url/add-file), then chat with --provider notebooklm.

Known issues

• Grok: UI changes frequently; always use @latest. If response capture fails, the selector may need updating.
• ChatGPT/Grok sessions expire quickly: Login immediately before chat if you get “Not logged in” errors.
• Parallel bunx runs: Cause EEXIST symlink errors. Use npx or run sequentially.

Safety

• Never include credentials, API keys, or tokens in the bundled files.
• The tool opens a real browser with real login state — treat it like your own browser session.
