So, selling gets easier, you're able to increase your prices, and more clients stay on retainer because you're not just a vendor at that point, you're the person who actually understands their business. So, here's one more prompt for you. Open up Claude and run this when

doing something on the bot's computer, and then it will be able to just replicate it like a skill, and there's so many other things. They get smarter over time. It's super cool. Now, in order to try this out, you are going to have to be on the Cursor Ultra plan, so get the Ultra plan, then you can download GrokBot,

Today, I'm going to show you guys nine of my favorite GrokBot hacks in just under 10 minutes. Now, using all of these hacks will help you get way more out of your GrokBots, and you don't have to be technical at all to get any of this set up and running. So, let's not waste any time and just get straight into the video. And real quick, I'm assuming in this video that you've already set up GrokBot, or you at least know what it is.
And if you aren't in that position, then go ahead and watch this one up here real quick, or I guess it's on this side over here. That's going to help you get up to speed, understand what it is, and then come back into this video so you can get the most out of it. But, with that out of the way, number one, we have using a grill me skill. So, the whole value of having a team of AI agents working for you is that they know you, and they know your business, and they know your goals.
So, the best way to get what's in your head into an AI agent system like this is to use a {slash} grill me skill. So, this is something that you can get in my free school community for completely free. Go down to the description and grab it in there. And what you can see is that I have this skill right here, which I use for Claude, I use for Codex, but I can actually just drag this right into here, into my GrokBot, and I can say, "Hey, go ahead and read this skill.
Go ahead and make a new skill in here that you can use. It's called the grill me skill." And then basically, what I want you to do is just use this on me to learn more about my business and my current goals. So, when I shoot that off, it's basically going to have to do a ton of things. It's going to read the skill, it's going to create the skill for us, and then it's going to start interviewing us. Because basically, the whole idea of this skill is that, as you can see, "Relentlessly interview the user about every aspect of the topic until you reach shared understanding." So, basically, I like to use grill me when I have new plans for the quarter.
I like to use grill me before I build an automation, or before I have a new project, or before I have a new idea, so my agents know exactly what I'm thinking. So, this is going to create that skill. As you can see, it just saved it, so I can click into this, and I can see that the skill is here, and I can make any edits if I need to. And now the agent will be able to automatically use this skill whenever you say, "Hey, grill me about X, Y, and Z." Oh, and by the way, if you want to see where the other skills live, you just click on plugins, and then you go to yours.
So, they're basically considering these little private plugins the skills. So, that's where they are. And now, moving on to tip number two, we have setting up a chief of staff. So, right here, you can see on the left, I've got a bunch of different agents. You can see that I've also got them grouped, like I've got some content agents and some general agents over here. Now, what you'll notice is that I have Klaus pinned, and Klaus is my chief, so he's my chief of staff.
And basically, my whole idea is that I want to only talk to Klaus, and Klaus has the ability to delegate work to all of my different specialization agents. Each one of these agents is basically good at one job, and Klaus knows which agent is good at what, and then I don't have to worry about talking to all of my different agents. I can just talk to Klaus, and it does the rest. As you can see here in my description, I say, "This is Nate's chief of staff.
Klaus is the only bot Nate talks to. Before doing any task, check whether another Grok bot owns it and delegate first. Only do the work yourself if no specialist fits. Bring the results back here." So, what you'll notice if I start to scroll up in my conversation with Klaus, we can see when he's messaged other bots. So, right here, he's been messaging Motion, and you can see the conversation between them. You can see here, he was messaging Eyes because it needed some research.
You can see right below it, it messaged Minor because it needed some research on content and stuff like that. So, basically, the whole idea is you have your main agent, and you have a bunch of different sub agents that your main agent can delegate to. And basically, the way you do it is you just make sure that in each of your different sub agents, you have a description for them that's very clear. This bot creates motion graphics and animations for intros or transitions for YouTube videos.
So, these are almost like skills. They're almost just like specialized sub agents that you build. For example, if I come down here to Eyes, you can see this is my researcher. You can see that Coffee is my morning planner. You can see that Money deals with Slack media. You can see that Views helps me with content strategy. And by the way, as you can see, Motion actually made all of these motion graphics that you saw earlier in the video, and it saved them locally here for me in this zip file.
So, pretty cool. Which brings us on to number three, which is basically the idea that you might be overwhelmed, you might not be able to understand, like, oh, what deserves a sub agent, what doesn't? Well, guess what? Go through this Grill me, have your main chief of staff understand what your goals are, and then ask it to help it build a team that it thinks will be the most valuable. So, here you can see, it says, "You already have research, social mining, packaging, motion, blah, blah, blah.
So, I wouldn't add a general helper or a thumbnail bot or a second chief of staff. I would add tube, I would add community, and I would add voice. And as I was able to say, "Hey, by the way, this month I'm working on this or I'm really struggling with this." It would help you build out more and more sub-agents for you that it can use to be better. And that brings us on to number four, because as you start to scale up your agents, you might have to worry about memory and stuff, because Grockbot automatically saves memory, which is really cool.
But there is a difference between its individual memory and shared memory across all of your different agents. Because if you go to plugins and you connect to things like Gmail or calendar, all of your agents can use those plugins. So, that's great. But watch this. There's basically two different types of files that are saved. There's individual-level agent memory, and then there's also like shared agent memory across all Grockbots.
So, it's very important that you're specifying to your Grockbots what you need to be shared context and what can just stay between you guys. So, right here, here is the shared knowledge. I'm the CEO of Uppercut AI. I'm in Chicago. I've got this president and CEO. Here's my channel. Here is blah blah blah. Here's our funnel. Here is Compozio. We use this for YouTube, Alexa and LinkedIn, which is another hack. Just give me a sec to get to that.
And then we have things that are Klaus-only, like this, like this, like this. It's really important to understand what does the agent that you're talking to actually know about you. And look at this, quick little bonus hack for you guys. You can actually start threads. So, let's say this agent said something right here that was really important and you want to kind of like double tap on that. Click on the three dots, start a thread, and now you can have a separate conversation with Klaus about one specific thing, and then you can jump back to the main session if you ever need to.
Okay, anyways, moving on to the next one, number four. This is Compozio. So, what I love about Grockbot is how easy it is to set up. And when you go to plugins, all you have to do is find the plugin for what you're looking for. Now, there are a lot of them, and I do imagine over time they're going to be adding more and more. But what if there are some that you don't have? Like YouTube, like Reddit, like LinkedIn, like GoHighLevel.
Well, that's where you can create an account at something called Compozio that has just like hundreds and hundreds and hundreds in here. And you can see that I was able to connect to things like Perplexity and YouTube and other things that I couldn't do inside of Grokbot. And this is called Compozio, and luckily, inside of Grokbot, if I go here, Grokbot lets you connect to Compozio. So, you can basically just connect to almost anything through this connection.
And that's why in my shared knowledge up here, I wanted all my agents to know that Compozio is how you get to YouTube, Perplexity, and LinkedIn, as well as other apps that we're probably going to add later. So, I wanted to add that in my shared knowledge. All right, moving on to number six, we have the idea of agent logging. You're probably going to be using this on your phone and on your desktop, and you're going to be shooting off a lot of prompts and a lot of tasks.
So, what I did is I created a skill in here. If I go to my plugins and I go to mine right here called log Grokbot work to ClickUp. Hey, go ahead and create a quick project where I need you to research the top five best voice AI agent providers. Now, what this does is basically, Klaus is going to kick off a message probably to a different agent, right? Probably Eyes, because that's our researcher. But, what's going to happen is it needs to update the actual ClickUp.
Because what I have is this ClickUp space where I can now see everything that my agents have done and everything that they're working on, and they also leave notes for me. So, right here I can see notes, it gives me a link, it tells me when it started, it tells me the status, it tells me the owner, and all of these different items, I can see basically like what is important and anything that I need to know about them, progress updates, and I can watch them over time.
And you can see right here, Klaus said, "Okay, awesome. I logged this right here in your ClickUp, so I should be able to go in here, and if I see a new in progress right here, research top five voice providers, the owner is Eyes via Klaus, and here is basically what we're looking on. It's waiting on Eyes, blah blah blah." All right, so moving on to number seven, we have the ability to teach our agents a task. So, when you're building automations and stuff, typically what you do is you use the grill me skill or you explain the process super clearly.
But, if you're doing something that might require like some computer use or maybe it's a little bit too difficult to explain because it's kind of visual, you can open up the computer of the actual agent that you're working on. Now, they all have a shared computer, but sometimes their desktops look different, but ultimately, under the hood, they all have the same shared computer. But what you can do here is teach a task.
So, let's say I wanted to teach Klaus how to, I don't know, go to Google Images and search for like Chicago Cubs, you know, food. And I needed it to every single week give me a rundown of the food that's being sold at Wrigley Field. Or maybe, I guess in this case, I would teach it how to do something like a Capsica. Basically, what's happening right now is it's recording my screen. And then whenever I stop the recording, it's going to analyze what it did.
It's going to turn that into a skill, and then we can reuse that in the future if we need to. But anyways, I could go to Images, and then I could basically just like save a few of these to the desktop or whatever. And then when I hit stop, it basically understands what I did. So, here you can see it says learn from demonstration. It's going to analyze that and turn that into a skill. All right. And over on this right-hand panel, we're going to move on to number eight, which is to actually create routines.
Now, all of this stuff is great, and you can do it on the go because you can use the Grok Bot app on your phone, which is great. But if you want things to happen when you sleep, or if you want them to happen on certain triggers, you can create routines right here. Routines are recurring tasks this bot runs on a schedule. So, I can hit create routine, and I can name it. I can give it an instruction. You can also say in this instruction, "Hey, you know, run this skill, or talk to these agents and do this." So, you can be very specific here.
And then, you can basically trigger it on a schedule. So, every hour, every day, a certain interval, or on specific events. Right now, we only have these six, but I'm sure they're going to add more of these later. But on Slack messages, on Git events, on Teams messages. And that means that these things can run even when your Grok Bot app is turned off, or your phone's turned off, or your computer's turned off because this all runs in Grok's cloud.
And finally, we have the agent computer, which is something that I already showed you guys up here. Obviously, we just took a look at this Capsica, and we took a look at this thing. But basically, what's really cool is that you can save profiles. So, I taught my um Klaus here how to do things in my school account. And what happens is if I log in right here to school, you can see that I'm already signed in in my account, which means if I wanted to teach it a task, which I already did by the way, it can go ahead and do it.
As you can see, if I go to my plugins and I go to my like 7-day challenge posts on school, it basically uses the computer in my already signed in school account, and it watched me go through find posts and like them, and now I can set that up on a routine to do that every day or every week. But the point being, you can have these credentials saved in there, and you don't have to like paste them in the chat, and you don't have to be unsecure about it.
You can just go ahead and log in, and then Grok Bot will be able to use that profile. But anyways, I know this one was quick, but I just wanted to show you guys a few of the ways that I've been using Grok Bot. If you haven't yet, or if you're just getting started, that might be able to help you get more out of it. So, if you guys enjoyed the video or you learned something new, please give it a like, it helps me out a ton.
And as always, I appreciate you guys making it to the end of the video, and I'll see you on the next one. Thanks, everyone.
