real story of how Grok @Bot saved the day
i own a lot of open source projects that in total have 24k+ stars on github. as a result i've been pretty overwhelmed by all the incoming issues and PRs
that just changed. if you filed issues or PRs on my repos, you might have noticed the queue is finally moving
this is mostly from 3 key changes i made -
1. defining a VISION.md for every repo i own (renaming to STRATEGY.md soon). i shared it in more detail here - https://x.com/kunchenguid/status/2089189790881382676?s=20
2. created a software factory setup with Grok Bot + Cursor cloud agents. i shared the setup here - https://x.com/kunchenguid/status/2090463366762676732?s=20
3. inviting a few maintainers who offered to help with issues that are triaged as vision-aligned
people might say "this could be done without Grok Bot as well" - true, but definitely not so easily and so low-maintenance
for example, having cursor cloud agents natively integrated in Grok Bot allows infinite horizontal scaling which is not something easily achievable in other similar systems. Grok Bot did a pretty great job bringing in the right primitives into a nicely integrated system
What you need
