Tomorrow’s meetings, one phone-readable page each
Krista’s daily meeting-prep routine pulls Salesforce, Gmail, Slack, Granola, and Gong into a short, skimmable brief she can read on her phone. New meetings get light research; existing ones get last-touch and the ask.

Dump a messy ask, get plain-language results back
Kun Chen’s Firstmate setup is a single Grok Bot you talk to for everything. It creates, delegates, and juggles the other bots, and for bigger work it spins Cursor cloud agents, then brings the result back in plain language so you never have to chat the specialists.

The Odyssey, storyboarded and shot by one bot

Screen your X replies for burners and insults
Reviews the replies to your posts and splits the signal from the noise: it flags accounts under 100 followers or under a year old, plus anyone slinging insults, so real conversation stays visible and throwaway replies get moderated. Jason Calacanis built it to keep his mentions classy.

Give the bot its own email, act from a CC
Michael Fenech gave his Grok Bot its own email address (via AgentMail), with a webhook that wakes it on each message. He CCs the bot and puts the instruction on the last line — 'Book Tuesday at 3pm and get back to them' — and it reads the thread, books the calendar, and replies to everyone from its own address.

A weekday bot that updates only what you already installed
Each weekday morning this Grok Bot inventories real binaries on the PC or Mac it can reach, updates only installed tools on the same channel already used, re-runs post-update hooks, honors a deny list, and stays quiet if nothing changed.
