Ask for a morning fact; let the bot create the routine itself

Routine settings menus slow you down for tiny recurring asks.

What hurt

Yair (@finebutwhy) asked for one weird fact every morning; the bot made the routine itself—no settings menus. Not affiliated with xAI.

What to install or create

Describe the cadence and output; let the bot wire the schedule.

Bots

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

Plugins

  • None on day one. Follow the first-run steps.

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/finebutwhy/status/2109347072793288802 (credit @finebutwhy).
  2. 2Say: every morning send me one weird fact (or your own tiny job).
  3. 3Confirm the routine it created and the quiet-if-nothing rule.
  4. 4Adjust time zone / hour once.
  5. 5Reuse for other one-line recurring asks.

Approval fence

Creating schedules is fine; anything that sends externally still needs approval.

What to tweak

Tell the outcome; let the bot own the wiring.
