Watchtower is an on demand research bot shared by @jessenowlin and first listed on 2026-10-20. It works when you message it rather than on a timer, which keeps usage low. 2 independent public catalogs list it, and its x.ai share link was last checked live on 2026-10-20.
Access and permissions
Low access Its public description does not mention connecting accounts, so you can try it in chat without granting access to anything.
No account access mentioned in the public description.
Derived from the public description. The live configuration on x.ai is the source of truth — review it before adding.
Before you add Watchtower
- Prefer bots that cite sources inline over ones that only summarize.
- Open the x.ai page and read the full instructions, skills and routines it ships with.
