What you need

Connected apps
Varies by bot: X, GitHub, Cursor, Cloudflare, Typefully, Notion, fal and Bland.
Routines
A morning tech-demo prompt drawn from X bookmarks, and a weekday-morning parking ping.
Skills
An image-bot skill that sends standardized prompts to Grok Imagine.

What prompted it

Templates had just arrived in Grok Bot, and the author wanted to show useful bots that others could copy without exposing private data.

How it’s set up

  1. The DevRel bot picks one new tool from X bookmarks each morning and drafts a prompt; a Cursor agent then builds a demo with a Cloudflare preview.
  2. Loops, an outer-loop engineering bot, researches context and patterns, then drafts prompts and starts Cursor cloud agents.
  3. The X algorithm bot advises on when and how to post; the writing bot edits hand-written drafts using Typefully and Notion.
  4. The personal CRM bot sorts X mutuals onto a Notion board by location, for meeting people while traveling.
  5. The image bot standardizes icons with Grok Imagine and fal background removal; the parking bot uses SF open data; Dial Bot makes phone calls in a cloned voice through Bland.
  6. To share a bot, open its settings, choose Share as template, then publish.

Evidence and limits

  • The post shares a setup; no result reported yet
  • Not reproduced by anyone else yet

The author thinks good content matters more than small posting optimizations; the X algorithm bot is for when you’re second-guessing yourself.
