INSTALL
How to add a Grok Bot template
There are two ways. Send your Bot one message with Boterly connected, or paste a setup prompt into a new Bot yourself. Both create the same skills, rules and paused routines.
Option 1: Install with one message
Connect Boterly to Grok Bot once as a custom connector. A free account includes 3 installs.
Then send any Bot a message such as “@boterly install Daily Brief into this bot”. Boterly adds the template’s skills, rules and routines to that Bot, with routines paused.
Option 2: Paste a setup prompt
- Copy the setup prompt. Open the template page for the job you want. Copy the setup prompt. That page lists the source, the license and the skills the prompt asks the Bot to create.
- Create a new Bot. In Grok Bot, open a new chat and choose Create new Bot.
- Paste the prompt. Paste the setup prompt as the first message. The template installs from that text.
- Review the preview. Read the role, rules, skills and routines in the reply. Compare them with the template page. Set approval controls for anything that page says the Bot must ask about first.
- Check the result. Search the reply for each skill name listed on the template page. Leave routines paused until that check looks right, then try one small task.

Paste does nothing
Confirm the prompt is the first message of a new Bot and wait for the preview reply. Do not paste it mid-conversation in an old chat. If there is still no reply, start a new Bot and paste it once more.
A skill is missing
Search the reply for each skill name listed on the template page. If one is missing, paste the same prompt again in a new Bot. This is not the same as a missing skill after an official Marketplace import.
Routines stay paused
Routines created paused are expected, not an install failure. Check the first run, run one small task by hand, then enable the routines you need.
