How this helps you
One message replaces a chain of separate chats, and the follow-up runs without you.
Here's a photo of my [item]. Sell it on [marketplace]: check the current price on the maker's site, find the lowest local listings, ask [writer Bot] how I usually write listings, draft the listing, show me before posting, and if nobody is interested lower the price by [$5] every week.
Fill in: [item] and [marketplace] are what and where. [writer Bot] is the Bot that knows your style, or drop that step. [$5] is the weekly drop.
What they did
Peng Zheng from the Grok Bot team wanted to sell a DJI mic on Facebook Marketplace. In one message with a photo she asked her chief of staff Bot to check the latest price on the official site, find the lowest local price she would compete with, learn how she wrote past listings, post the listing, and lower the price by $5 every week if nobody was interested. When it reached the description step, it messaged her writer Bot to ask how she had written listings before. She says the shift is not only delegating single tasks but chaining them. Elsewhere she buys 3D printer filament and has the same Bot add it to her Notion inventory list.
Who it's for: Anyone with errands that take five small steps across different sites.
Before you start
- A Bot that can browse and, for posting, a site it can sign in to (it will ask you to take over and sign in if needed).
- Optional: a writer Bot that knows your style.
How to try it
- Write the goal, then list each step in order.
- Include the rule for what happens later (price drops, reminders, follow-ups).
- Say which of your Bots to consult for which step.
- Attach any photo or file it needs.
- Ask it to check in before anything is posted or bought.
What to expect
A draft listing with a suggested price and the local competition, a question before it posts, and a weekly price-drop routine afterwards.
Common mistakes
- Leaving out the follow-up rule, so the job stops after posting.
- Skipping the check-in before it posts anything public.
Related tips
- Write the outcome, not the recipe: Describe what you want; pasted tool calls break by week two.
- Research to purchase, with your approval: It researched pet insurance, compared quotes and paid with Link only after the user said buy.
- Use a group thread to watch Bots work together: Put several Bots in one chat so you can see every handoff instead of hidden Bot-to-Bot messages.
