Step by step

The workflow

Follow the sequence once, then adapt the prompts, checks, and handoffs to your own setup.

5 steps

Step01

Install and Open GrokBot

Begin by downloading and launching the GrokBot application, which is available for both desktop and mobile devices.

Step02

Create a New Specialized Agent

Instead of a single generalist agent, GrokBot encourages creating specialized bots. Start the process by creating a new bot for a specific task you want to automate.

Step03

Instruct Your Bot with a Clear Prompt

Give your new bot a clear, simple instruction defining its role and scope. This helps it understand its primary function and which connectors it might need to use.

Example prompt
I want you to be a family manager bot that keeps track of my personal email and personal calendar.

Be specific about the bot's domain (e.g., 'personal email', 'work calendar') to help it focus.

Step04

Connect Multiple Service Accounts

Navigate to the connector settings. Authorize GrokBot to access your services and leverage its key feature: connecting multiple accounts for a single service, such as adding all your Gmail or Slack accounts.

This is ideal for users who juggle personal, work, and side-project accounts and need an agent to work across all of them without switching contexts.

Step05

Build a Team of Specialized Bots

Repeat the process to create a 'team' of agents for various functions. The blog author created bots for product management ('Prody McProd'), invoice chasing ('Money Maker'), and tracking promises ('Commitment Tracker').

Name your bots descriptively to easily identify their purpose. This multi-agent approach allows for more focused and effective automation.
