Short cards you can read in order or jump straight to. Tap the link icon on any card to share just that part.

01

Learn why Grok Bot needs different prompts

Grok Bot is xAI’s app for AI teammates. Bots run on a cloud computer, sign in to your tools, and take actions instead of only answering questions.

A strong Grok Bot prompt states:

  • The goal
  • The tools to use
  • The things to skip
  • The output format
  • The place to save it
  • The steps that need your approval
  • The point to stop and ask

Every template below ends with an approval rule. Leave it in.

02

Use these templates well

  • Swap every [bracket] for your own details
  • Cut any tools you do not use
  • Run it once and check the result carefully
  • Save the templates that work as skills or routines
  • Never put passwords or two-factor codes in a prompt
03

Set up your bot

1 · Write the bot job description

Name: [name]. Job: [one job]. Description: You help me with [work] for [business or life area]. Use only [tools]. Never [forbidden actions]. Check with me before sending, paying, posting, or deleting anything.

2 · First conversation

Before we begin, ask me up to ten questions about my goals, tools, preferences, and limits for [job]. Then summarize what you learned and list the access you need.

04

Run research

3 · Build a company research brief

Research [company] with public sources. Write a one-page brief covering what they do, customers, recent news, competitors, and three likely challenges. Link a source for every claim. Save it to [location].

4 · Competitor tracker

Every [day], check [competitor list] for new launches, pricing changes, and announcements. Log changes in [tracker] with links, and message me only when something important changed.

5 · Market scan

Find the main tools or services for [problem] used by [audience]. Compare price, key features, and public review themes in a sourced table. Flag anything you could not verify.

05

Support sales

6 · Lead list

Find [number] companies that match: [ideal customer]. Use only public business sources. For each one, note a recent signal, the right role to contact, and a fit score with reasons. Skip existing customers in [CRM].

7 · Outreach drafts

For each lead in [list], draft a short first message that mentions their recent signal and offers [value]. Save the drafts to [location]. Do not send anything.

8 · Call prep

Before my call with [company] at [time], prepare a brief with a company summary, recent news, likely problems, five questions to ask, and relevant examples from [our case studies].

9 · CRM update

After each call note I add to [location], update [CRM] with the summary, deal stage, next step, and follow-up date. Check with me before changing deal values.

06

Run operations

10 · Invoice processing

Check [inbox] for new invoices. Pull supplier, amount, due date, and invoice number into [tracker]. Flag duplicates and anything odd. Never pay or reply.

11 · Bug report

Reproduce the issue in [report] in [environment]. Record the steps, expected and actual results, and screenshots. File a ticket in [tool] and send me the link.

12 · Onboarding checklist

Prepare onboarding for [new hire] starting [date] as [role]: a checklist, the accounts to request, the documents to share, and a first-week schedule. Check with me before creating any account.

13 · Weekly report

Every Monday at [time], pull last week’s [metrics] from [tools] into a one-page report with changes, likely reasons, and one recommendation. Message me the summary.

07

Create content

14 · Content repurposing

Turn [article or transcript] into a LinkedIn post, an X thread, and a newsletter section in my voice, using [voice guide]. Save each one as a draft. Do not publish.

15 · Review replies

Gather new reviews from [platforms]. Draft a short, polite reply to each in our voice, and flag any that need a personal reply from me. Do not post any replies.

08

Boost personal productivity

16 · Morning briefing

Every weekday at [time], summarize my calendar, the five most important unread emails, and this week’s deadlines. Draft replies to urgent emails. Do not send.

17 · Travel planning

Find options for a trip to [place] from [date] to [date] within [budget]: flights, hotels near [area], and local transport. Compare them in a table with links. Do not book or hold anything.

18 · Subscription audit

Using email receipts in [inbox], list my subscriptions with price, renewal date, and last use where visible. Suggest which to cancel. Do not cancel anything.

09

Build skills and routines

19 · Teach the bot a skill

Watch me do [task] once. Then describe the steps you learned, ask about anything unclear, and save them as a skill called [name]. Run it once on [test input] so I can check it.

20 · Turn a skill into a routine

Turn the [skill name] skill into a routine that runs every [schedule]. Before each run, check [condition]. After each run, message me what you did and anything awaiting my approval.

10

Add these lines to every template

  • “Ask me about anything unclear before you start.”
  • “Show me your plan before you take action.”
  • “Link a source for every important claim.”
  • “Never send, post, pay, delete, or share data without my approval.”
  • “When you finish, summarize what you did and what still needs me.”
11

Keep templates safe

  • Give each bot only the access its template needs
  • Keep Auto-review on Ask first for risky actions
  • Watch the first runs of every routine
  • Remember that all your bots share one cloud computer
  • Pause routines you stop needing

Follow the golden rule

Stop writing a new prompt every time. Save the templates that work, and turn the best into skills and routines.

  • Goal
  • Tools
  • Output
  • Location
  • Approval
  • Skill
  • Routine

Start today with the morning briefing or the company research brief. Refine it until you trust the result.
