Work
Stand up a Token Officer for the bot fleet
You can feel usage vanishing and still not know which cron is loud.
What hurt
Bobby Lansing (@dataguybobby) posted a ready job brief for a Throttle / Token Officer bot: watch the Grok Bot fleet for token burn and wasteful loops; flag noisy crons, duplicate watches, and expensive work on the wrong bot; short reports only; stay quiet when nothing material to fix; skill: Use Fleet token throttle. Author-quoted brief — not a reconstructed mega prompt.
What to install or create
One Token Officer bot. Paste the author-quoted job block. Point it at your fleet list / routines. Ask for short anomaly reports only. Optional: attach a Fleet token throttle skill if you already have one — do not invent skill body text Bobby did not publish.

The prompt
Author-quoted job brief

Last line is our approval fence: Never send, post, spend, or buy without my explicit yes.

First run

- 4Run one audit by hand. Expect a short report or silence.

What to tweak
Steal the quiet auditor role. Quote the brief; do not invent the skill file.
