Tag @bot on X: say "send it to my bot"

How this helps you

The right wording makes a reply on X land in your Grok Bot chat, so you can act on it later.

@bot summarise this thread and send it to my bot

What they did

@Texas_Twins_Dad found that just tagging @bot or asking for a summary won't reach your Grok Bot chat. Saying "send it to my bot" or "send me the summary" makes it land in your app.

Who it's for: Anyone who reads X and wants to save threads to work on later.

Before you start

• The X plugin installed and configured. Matt Palmer says Bot needs your X username linked to your account.

How to try it

1. Connect your X account to your Grok account. The docs say tagging needs it, and it isn't in every region yet.
2. Reply to a post tagging @bot.
3. Include 'send it to my bot' or 'send me the summary' so it lands in your app.
4. Check your main Bot's chat for the result.

What to expect

The summary arrives in your main Bot's chat, and @bot posts a short public reply.

Common mistakes

• Just tagging @bot and expecting a reply in your chat.
• Tagging @grok in the same post. The troubleshooting docs say @bot stays quiet then, and also on posts with a video.
