Keep an 'on-deck' sheet of Grok Bot templates and review it weekly

@gambrill (Oct 15) keeps seeing Grok Bot templates they want to add, so they asked Grok Bot to build an "on-deck circle": a Google Sheet listing each bot template, its link and what it does. On a scheduled time at the weekend, usually during other agent maintenance, they go through the sheet, pick a couple of bots and decide which are ready to join their team.
Try it yourself
What you get
One list of bot templates to try, and a weekly slot to add only the ones worth setting up.
Tools
- Grok Bot
- Google Sheets
Steps
- When you see a bot template you like, tag your bot and ask it to add it to your list.
- Keep one Google Sheet with each template, its link and what it does.
- Set a weekly review time, like their weekend slot.
- Pick a couple of bots each time and set them up with real context before adding them.
Copy-ready prompt

In their words
Seeing a cool bot is the easy part. Setting it up right is what makes it useful.
