Before you add a bot
Community bots are third-party software. All bots in your account share one computer, so a second bot is not a security boundary.
Read the preview first
Open the share link and read the public description. If it stays unclear what the bot writes, sends or deletes, that is already an answer.
Only use genuine links
Only add bots via links like https://x.ai/bot/…. All entries on grokbots.de use such links.
Compare the profile
After adding, check that the instructions and skills match the preview.
Connect services one by one
No connections are copied when you add a bot. Connect the services you need yourself, one after another.
Let it read first
Start with a task that only summarizes or lists. Nothing that sends, pays, posts or deletes.
Then routines and write access
Turn on recurring routines and actions that write only once the bot has proven itself.
No keys in instructions
Never put API keys or passwords into instructions. If a bot asks for that, report it to us.
Be especially careful with bots that move money or trade, send or post on your behalf, or delete files and data.
