What hurt

Shelly (@shellysheed) has Grok Bot search the calendar for upcoming birthdays. Not affiliated with xAI.

What to install or create

It asks interests, proposes options, she chooses, the bot orders and tracks deliveries, and notes on the calendar what was purchased.

Bots

  • No new bot. Follow the first-run steps.

Plugins

  • Calendar

    Optional

Routines

  • None on the first run. Watch one manual pass first.

The prompt

This is a tip, not a pasteable system prompt. The author did not publish one. Follow the first-run steps.

First run

  1. 1Read https://x.com/shellysheed/status/2109338340096913747 (credit @shellysheed).
  2. 2Connect calendar and list people whose birthdays matter.
  3. 3Ask for upcoming birthdays with gift ideas after interest questions.
  4. 4Pick one option; approve the exact order.
  5. 5Confirm it wrote what was purchased onto the calendar.

Approval fence

Every order and payment needs your yes on the exact item and price.

What to tweak

You choose; the bot handles the boring logistics after.
