How to try Grip offline with a scripted grader with Grip

Run the fake provider on a scratch repo to see the quiz and whiteboard with no account or key.

Who it is forAnyone curious about Grip who wants to see how the quiz feels before connecting a model or installing a hook.

The problemInstalling a git hook and connecting a model feels like a large commitment before knowing what the quiz asks.

The outcomeThe developer sees five scripted questions in the terminal and the same change in the browser, with nothing blocked.

What you need first

  • Python 3.11 or newer on Linux, macOS or Windows
  • git installed and a repository to test in
  • One model option: an installed Claude Code, Codex or Gemini CLI, an Anthropic API key, an OpenAI-compatible API, Ollama, or the offline fake provider

Steps

  1. Run pipx install grip-hook or uv tool install grip-hook
  2. Run mkdir try-grip && cd try-grip && git init -q
  3. Run echo 'def add(a, b): return a + b' > math.py && git add math.py
  4. Run grip quiz --provider fake for the terminal quiz, then grip whiteboard --provider fake for the browser version

Prompt for your agent

Using the grip repo at github.com/guilyx/grip, follow the offline trial in a new folder <repo path> with the fake provider. Expected output: five terminal questions from `grip quiz --provider fake` and a browser whiteboard from `grip whiteboard --provider fake`. Verify that no push was blocked, since grip init was not run.

Caveat. The fake provider uses scripted questions offline, so it shows the workflow but does not grade a real answer with a model.
