Lost in a city: drop the destination into calendar waypoints every 30 minutes
Maps fail; you need building-to-building waypoints you can yell for by voice.
What hurt
@JonnaMargaux got lost in Bordeaux after riots with broken Google Maps. Her Grok Bot had calendar access, so it dropped the train-station address into appointments every 30 minutes as waypoints. She yelled “Hey Grok” for the next building and avoided bad neighborhoods. Tip only. Not affiliated with xAI.
What to install or create
Connect calendar → bot writes destination as timed appointments → voice hop building to building.

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
- 1Read https://x.com/JonnaMargaux/status/2114503533173383388 (credit @JonnaMargaux).
- 2Connect calendar to your travel bot.
- 3When lost, tell it the destination (e.g. train station) and ask for waypoints every 30 minutes as calendar appointments.
- 4Use voice (“Hey Grok, next building”) to hop waypoint to waypoint.
- 5Ask it to avoid neighborhoods you name as unsafe; you still choose the route.
Approval fence
Bot only writes calendar waypoints; you drive and decide the path.
What to tweak
Steal the 30-minute calendar waypoint pattern when maps die.
