Order Meituan takeout with Grok Bot and the open-source grok-eats skill — it stops at checkout, you pay on your phone

First-hand test: with the grok-eats skill, Grok Bot uses the cloud-computer browser on Meituan’s web app, applies the biggest coupon, reads back the order and only submits when you say “提交” (submit); you pay in the phone app

Constraints

Send the open-source skill to Grok Bot → log in by sending your phone number and SMS code in chat (identity checks go through the encrypted form) → pick an address from the address book only → let it suggest 2–3 “re-order” options from recent orders → it applies the biggest coupon first and reads back the confirmation page → you explicitly say “提交” (submit) → it stops at the cashier and you pay in the Meituan app.

What they did

Meituan offers no personal takeout-ordering API, so the author had Grok Bot drive Meituan’s web app in the cloud-computer browser and turned the pitfalls into the open-source skill grok-eats (MIT).

How it went

Per the author: a ¥14 Americano and a dinner that dropped from ¥41.6 to ¥24.6 with coupons, at normal takeout prices with no errand fee. Pitfalls: coupons not auto-applied, re-orders dropping items, invented addresses, and possible identity checks at login.

Worth knowing

Web automation is not officially supported by Meituan and may break with redesigns or risk controls; the evidence is one account, one day, two orders. Use only your own account at low frequency — no multiple accounts, bulk orders or coupon farming. Four hard rules: never touch payment, never submit without an explicit “提交”, never invent addresses, never ask for sensitive data in plain text.

Steps

  1. Install the skill

    Use a new or existing Grok Bot that can open its cloud computer and send it the sentence below with the repo link (the README also says you can put SKILL.md and references/ into the bot’s skills). The author says the article itself can be handed to the bot too.

  2. Log in through chat

    The bot opens Meituan’s web app (h5.waimai.meituan.com) at the SMS login page. Send your phone number in chat, it fills it in and requests the code; then send the 6-digit code. The author advises against taking over the cloud computer yourself (laggy, loses focus). If an identity check asks for the birthday on your ID, use Grok’s encrypted form — never send it in plain chat. Web login does not sign the phone app out.

  3. Address book only

    On the first run the author asked for delivery to a gym that was not in the address book and the bot tried to create a new map address; location also drifted once. The skill therefore only uses existing address-book entries and re-checks the address line on the confirmation page. Add missing addresses in the app yourself.

  4. Ask “what’s for dinner”

    For example “晚饭吃点高蛋白的” (something high-protein for dinner). The bot reads your last 3–7 days of orders, avoids what you ate today, and offers 2–3 options as a multiple choice, preferring same-shop “re-order” meals. Order times follow the order list (the author found the detail page off by ~15 hours). Optional: copy profile.example.md to profile.md with budget, dislikes and preferences.

  5. Biggest coupon first, then read back

    Coupons are not ticked by default on the confirmation page. The skill applies the largest platform coupon and shop voucher before quoting, then reads back shop, items, address, delivery time, coupons used and the final total. “Re-order” can drop items (5 became 2 for the author), so it compares with the original order and checks the minimum order; shop-page “x% off” labels defer to cart prices.

    ## 四条硬规则(任何情况都不能破)
    
    1. **不碰支付。** 点「提交订单」以后就停。不输支付密码,不点「确认支付」,不处理月付、3DS、免密支付。收银台弹出来就关掉,不要管它。
    2. **提交前必须拿到用户明确的“提交”。** 先把读回的结果发给用户确认:店、菜、地址、送达时间、用了哪些券、合计。用户说“提交”才能点。不接受“应该可以”这类模糊回复。
    3. **只用地址簿里已有的地址。** 不在地图上新建地址,不按店名或地名去猜一个地址写进去。
    4. **不明文索要敏感信息。** 短信验证码可以在聊天里传。身份核实需要的证件信息(例如生日),宿主有加密表单就走加密表单,没有就请用户自己去页面上填。日志、截图、回复里都不能出现这些信息。

    ## 每次提交前的检查清单
    
    - [ ] 已登录:「我的」页显示的不是“未登录”
    - [ ] 地址来自地址簿,确认页的地址行再看过一次
    - [ ] 已勾选可用的最大红包和商家代金券,报给用户的是券后合计
    - [ ] 「再来一单」的菜品和原单一致,已达到起送价
    - [ ] 不和今天已经吃过的重复(用户特别要求的除外)
    - [ ] 用户已经明确说“提交”
  6. You say “提交”; it stops at the cashier; pay on your phone

    Only after you explicitly say “提交” does it press submit, and it stops at the cashier page, closing any payment-password or credit pop-ups in the cloud computer. The skill then replies that the order is submitted and asks you to open the Meituan app → 我的 (Me) → 待支付 (Pending payment) within 15 minutes; you pay on your phone yourself.

  7. Optional: coupons and routines

    The author also uses Meituan Open Platform’s official coupon skill “meituan-coupon” on ClawHub once a day (official rule: once per account per day, no scripted bulk claiming), plus WorkBuddy-exclusive coupons via CodeBuddy CLI. The daily recommendation routine is off by default in the skill; the author suggests running it manually a few times first, and even when on, every order waits for your reply.
