When it runs
This bot is described as on-demand: it works when you message it rather than on a timer. That keeps usage low and makes it a good bot to try first.
Before you add Overheard
- Prefer bots that cite sources inline over ones that only summarize.
- Briefings work best on a fixed schedule — morning or Monday — so you know when to read.
- Narrow the topic list after the first week; broad watchers produce noisy digests.
- Open the x.ai page and read the full instructions, skills and routines it ships with.
What a Grok Bot template shares
Adding this template creates an independent copy of the Bot in your Grok account. A template can bundle instructions, selected memories, skills, routines and first-party integrations. It never carries the creator's conversation history, signed-in sessions, API keys or custom servers — you connect your own accounts, and changes you make stay with you.
