Most people quit Claude in the first 10 minutes. Not because it's hard, because nobody showed them the first move.

So I built the guide I wish they had. Free, step by step, no account needed. Zero to real workflows.

@bot Any plans for an official Grok Bot Apple Watch app? iPhone and Android are covered. Watch is still third-party only.

@Tferriere I end each work block with a report of what ran and what stalled.

@BrandBrooder @CinderBistro I'd let it gather openings and hold a draft booking. The confirm still needs my yes. Same rule I use on outbound email.

[Matthew Sutherland @ByteFlowAI]

@BrandBrooder Anything that leaves my name on it: posts, client email, purchases. Drafts are fine. The send stays mine.

I love this concept but here are some IRL challenges, how will these issues be addressed? AI agents making phone calls often overlooks the "human-in-the-loop" friction points that define modern customer service. Navigating automated menus, passing biometric voice verification, and dealing with aggressive retention departments are significant hurdles for an AI to clear.

**Challenges for AI-Driven Phone Support:**

* **Identity Verification:** Many institutions require dynamic, real-time verification (like PINs, secondary passwords, or voice print matching) that may not be securely stored or accessible to an AI agent.
* **Customer Retention Loops:** Retention departments are specifically trained to identify and bypass robotic or scripted responses; an AI would need high-level "persuasion engineering" to maintain its objective without being transferred back to the start of the queue.
* **Upsell Management:** Sales agents are incentivized to keep callers on the line; navigating these prompts requires the agent to remain assertive and focused on the user's original goal rather than being diverted by standard sales scripts.
* **Context Fragmentation:** Every time a call is transferred to a new department, the "entire story" usually needs to be re-explained, which would require the AI to maintain a state-aware log of the interaction that it can recall and summarize accurately for the next human representative.

here’s a short grok bot guide on how i create high quality bots and manage my team. ask @bot to read this post and help you improve your team!

• add dr eggbot to your team! he’s my bot designer that i use to create bots
• you don’t need a lot of bots. a few good bots can be more useful and easier to manage than a large team
• tell your bots to create skills for itself as you give it instructions on how to do tasks. this lets them do them more consistently even over long conversations. you can even ask it to create a private github repo for you to store all your skills if you want them preserved independently
• add connectors, use the vault, and give access to all the tools you use to do your work. you can also ask your bot to setup its own email and it can sign up for its own accounts for better separation
• thinking about all the work you do by hand, or steps in your workflows where you have to copy and paste information back to your bot. ask your bot how it can do that for you instead!
• imagine you hired an intern, how would you onboard them and help them do the work correctly and efficiently? introduce yourself to your bot and describe the work you do, then ask it how it can help you automate it

and my favorite tip: use voice mode or the transcription option! it’s a good way to just brain dump a lot of information. then, at the end, tell your bot to “restate this in your own words” so you can confirm it understood you

here's how i shipped 2,500 PRs last month to production

this was originally supposed to be for Cursor Compile in London. i couldn't make it since i was livestreaming for Grok @Bot Galaxy so i'm making it available for free here on X! watch it on 2x speed, i talk slowly

[lauren @poteto]

the shipping intensifies

@poteto Intro to Grok Bots class featuring dr eggbot!

[soural @0xSoural]

Holy f*ck, SpaceXAI engineer Lauren Tan:

"You can't spawn a hundred agents when you don't even trust the output of one agent"

"If you don't have a verification skill, you are the verifier. You're the bottleneck"

In a 1-hour talk, she shows how she went from watching every output to shipping 2,000 PRs a month

Watch every step → Verify → Skills → Evals → Auto-merge

Trust in agents is not a feeling, it's infrastructure you build

Worth more than any $3,000 AI coding bootcamp

Bookmark it and watch it tonight

Grok @Bot is like hiring a super smart and fun employee!

[Matthew Sutherland @ByteFlowAI]

@grok I'm on SuperGrok Heavy at $300/mo with Grok Bot linked. If I switch to The X Subscription Ultra at $200/mo, do I get the same Grok Bot weekly usage, or does Bot usage now share one pool with chat, Imagine, and voice? Is Grok 4 Heavy included on Ultra?

[Michael | AI + Agents @Michael_Fenech_]

I keep hearing the same thing from people trying Grok Bot:

“I’ve tried it. But I still don’t really understand what I’m supposed to use it for.”

If that’s you, give me 53 seconds.

I’ll show you the mental model that makes Grok Bot click 👇🏻

[Tibo @thsottiaux]

Over the next 28 days, each day we’ll either ship one thing that is a clear improvement and relevant for most codex/work users or ship a full reset. Let the improvements begin.
