What this state means

Supported with conditions, with the qualification kept attached.

Agent chat documents PDF attachments. Grok Bot documents a broader attach path, including PDFs, Office documents, and CSVs, and warns that unusual files may not be readable. Neither cited page names a seed plan. Workspace file reads are not treated as uploads.

Capability definition

Accepts user files as first-class conversational or project context.

Scope boundary

Repository workspace access is not automatically classified as a general-purpose file-upload feature.

Researcher note

Path A uses the same two official sections as the PDF record, quoting the attach and supported-input sentences. Did not record spreadsheet analysis: CSV and Office appear as Grok Bot inputs, but no second official section says Cursor analyzes spreadsheets. Did not copy Pro+ from the Grok Bot billing page onto seed plan Pro Plus.
