ONE-TIME SETUP · ABOUT A MINUTE
Connect Boterly to Grok Bot
Do this once. After that, install any Boterly template by sending one message to a Bot. No searching, no pasting setup prompts.
1. Create a free Boterly account
A free account includes 3 one-message installs. Reinstalling or updating a template you already have does not count.
2. Copy your Boterly key
On your account page, choose Create key and copy the header value. It starts with Bearer btr_ and is shown only once.
3. Add the custom connector in Grok Bot
Open the apps icon at the bottom of the Grok Bot sidebar, then add a custom connector:
- Name
boterly- Type
- Remote HTTPS
- Server URL
https://boterly.si/api/mcp- HTTP header
- Key
Authorization, valueBearer <your key> - Client ID
- Leave empty
Paste your key only into this form, never into a chat. Anything typed in a conversation stays in the Bot’s history.
4. Install a template by message
In any Bot, send:
@boterly install Daily Brief into this bot
Boterly adds the template’s skills, rules and routines to that Bot. Routines start paused. You can also ask @boterly what should I set up for my inbox?, install a whole kit with @boterly install the founder kit, or check for updates with @boterly my templates.
Something not working?
Ask @boterly why is my routine not running? and it looks up sourced fixes, or read how to add a custom MCP server to Grok Bot.
