How a Grok Bot insider builds good bots and runs a team of them

Lauren (@poteto), who works on Grok Bot at SpaceXAI, shared a short guide that's had 1.1M views and 18,000 bookmarks. Start with 'dr eggbot', her bot-designer template that asks a few questions and then builds bots for you. Keep a few good bots rather than a big team. Have bots write skills for themselves as you teach them (optionally kept in a private GitHub repo). Give them connectors, the vault, the tools you use, and their own email inbox and accounts. Look for copy-paste steps you could hand over, and onboard each bot like an intern. Her favourite tip: brain-dump by voice, then ask the bot to "restate this in your own words".

Why it mattersIt's first-hand advice from someone who builds the product, and it's practical rather than a promise of results. One thing to bear in mind: more bots and routines use more of your allowance, and users report tighter limits this week.
