I’m running about 30 active agents at any given moment, and in this episode I break down my full Grok Bot setup: what it is, how it compares to OpenClaw, and the nine bots I’ve built for work and my personal life. We go deep on Chief (my chief-of-staff bot sweeping six inboxes and multiple Slack workspaces), TradBot (the family agent that prints a kitchen-table newspaper for my kids), two engineering bots handling my PR queue and SOC 2 compliance monitoring, Holly Helpdesk, and a handful of personal bots I didn’t expect to actually love. I also walk through how I migrated everything from OpenClaw, including the script I used to export and transplant each agent’s identity and schedule.

What you’ll learn:

The three primitives Grok Bot is built on, and why one of them changes what agents can actually do
How Chief, my general-purpose chief of staff, handles a scope I didn’t think a single bot could manage
The writing quirk I noticed immediately with the Grok model, and what I did about it before letting it near my inbox
Why I created a family agent, what it produces every morning, and the design principle I used that has nothing to do with a screen
The two engineering bots doing work I used to do myself, and how one of them handles compliance in a way that surprised me
How Holly Helpdesk started getting five-star reviews from customers who had no idea they were talking to a bot
The personal bots I built mostly on a whim, and the one I now look forward to every Monday morning
