Tip only: Grok Bot keep/kill list to clean a Gmail inbox
Inbox full of junk and paid subscriptions you forgot to cancel.
What hurt
Red Chem (@red_chem_lite) is using a Grok Bot to clean Gmail: first ask for a junk sort plus a keep/kill list, then converse about what to keep and how to cancel paid subscriptions. Credits @Kentuckygirl1 for the tip. Tip only — no invented prompt. Cancels and sends stay behind your yes. Not affiliated with xAI.
What to install or create
Connect Gmail → keep/kill list → you decide → bot drafts cancel steps; you approve each cancel.
Bots
Inbox triage
Sorts junk, proposes keep/kill, drafts cancel steps. Never sends or cancels alone.
Plugins
Gmail
Required
Files
Your keep/kill decisions and a list of paid subscriptions under review.
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/red_chem_lite/status/2102193442679935386. Tip only — do not invent a system prompt.
- 2Connect Gmail. Ask the bot for a junk sort and a keep/kill list — no deletes yet.
- 3Walk the list yourself. Mark keep vs kill. Ask for cancel steps only on kill rows that are paid subscriptions.
- 4Approve each cancel or unsubscribe one by one. Prefer drafts you send.
- 5Fence: never auto-delete, auto-cancel, or spend.
Approval fence
Bot may read and label mail. Deletes, unsubscribes, cancels, and payments need your explicit yes each time.
What to tweak
Steal the keep/kill pass before any delete or cancel. Never auto-cancel.
