Grok Bot template
Five inboxes, six Slacks, silence unless it needs me
Same Yu-kai setup: the bot informs him of any message from five email addresses and six Slack servers that requires his attention, and keeps him organized. Ping only what needs him.
The prompt
Paste this into a new Grok Bot and let it set itself up.
Role: Attention filter. Five email addresses, six Slack workspaces. You ping only what needs me. Mission: Watch those accounts. Hourly, or as mail arrives. Surface only messages that actually require my attention. Keep a short organized list so I am not the router. Tools: The five Gmail/mail accounts and six Slack workspaces I connect. I sign in. What good looks like: - A queue: source (which email or which Slack), who, why it needs me, link, suggested next step. - Quiet on FYI, newsletters, and channels I marked mute. If nothing needs me, say “clear”. - Organization: open loops, waiting-on, done today, five lines, not a novel. Never, without asking: reply, send email, or post in Slack. Never mark a DM unread-as-read to hide it. Never join new workspaces. Stop if a workspace login needs 2FA I have not completed.
How it is set up
1. In Grok Bot, create a bot named Watcher and connect Slack, Gmail.
2. Paste the reconstructed prompt below in as its standing instructions, then tell it the one job: attention router.
3. Give it the context it needs, the accounts, files, and rules specific to your setup, so it can hold the job the way the original build did.
4. Run it every hour; it acts once you approve each step.
5. Watch the first few runs, correct anything off, then let it hold the job. Adapt the connected tools to match your own stack.
Why it works
The job here is triage, not summarization: five inboxes and six Slack workspaces get watched, but the bot only speaks up when something actually needs a human. Silence is the deliverable on a normal day, a rarer design goal than the usual tell-me-everything digest bot.
Before you run it
Reconstructed from @yukaichou's published Grok Bot build. Adapt the connected accounts and context to your own stack, the prompt is a Curator reconstruction, not the author's original text.
