What it does
The repository collects operating contracts for Grok Bot, xAI's AI teammate. The pattern is job, boundary, skill, routine, team. The catalog has 49 templates, 10 teams, 47 skills and 8 routines. Install needs no Node: in Grok Bot you create an agent called Setup, paste the `START.md` link and pick a team, for example Eng with pull request review, bug reproduction and issue drafts. Or you copy a single `PROFILE.md` into Edit Profile. The optional CLI runs through `npx --yes github:cobusgreyling/grok-bot-templates` with the commands `list`, `show`, `init`, `score`, `validate`, `doctor`, `catalog` and `new`. The Bot Ready score gives up to 100 points for job, sources, never-list, deliverable, first task, skill, data rules, autonomy, example, routine discipline, share safety and working style. A result of 80 or more counts as ready.
Who it is for. Grok Bot users configuring a teammate agent who want to start from vetted profiles.
Good fit when
- You need to quickly set up an Eng, Ops or Sales team and connect the listed plugins.
- You want a single profile such as PR Reviewer or Inbox Triage pasted into the bot settings.
- You want a 100-point readiness score for your bot and a badge for the README.
- You need a new bot scaffold through `new my-job --category ops`.
Not a fit when
- You work in Claude Code or Codex: the profiles are written for xAI Grok Bot.
- You need autonomous sending: by default week one runs at level L1, drafts with no sending.
- You need official xAI templates: the project is independent and not affiliated with xAI.
Example request
Paste START.md into the Setup agent and install the Eng team. Then connect the listed plugins and keep autonomy at level L1.Limitations
The project is independent and not affiliated with xAI, and templates are pasted into your own Grok Bot account. The profiles are built for Grok Bot, and Claude Code or Codex would need them rewritten. Week one runs at level L1: drafts and review-ready artifacts with no sending, posting, paying, merging or production work. A routine is turned on after two good runs and a test run. Share links in Grok Bot are public, so the catalog is scanned in CI for share safety. The README version is v1.1.0, and the CLI needs Node.js.
How to disable. Turn off routines and delete the bot in Grok Bot. If you ran the CLI through `npx`, nothing global is installed. Local scaffolds from `init` sit in the folder you chose.
FAQ
How do I install the templates without Node?
In Grok Bot create an agent named Setup, paste the `START.md` link from the repository and pick a team. Connect the listed plugins and keep autonomy at level L1 for a week.
What is the Bot Ready score?
It is 100 points across twelve criteria: job, sources, never-list, deliverable, first task, skill, data rules, autonomy, example, routine discipline, share safety and working style. A result of 80 or more counts as ready.
Which autonomy levels exist?
Four: L0 observe, L1 draft (the default), L2 approved action in chat and L3 scheduled. Week one stays at L1.
Which commands does the CLI have?
`start`, `list`, `show`, `init`, `score`, `validate`, `doctor`, `catalog` and `new`. For example, `init --team eng --out ./eng-bots` creates a team roster and a kickoff.
Can a bot read the catalog itself?
Yes, there is a public API with no auth: `catalog.json`, `teams.json`, `status.json` and `llms.txt` on GitHub Pages. The bot guide is in `docs/agent.md`.
