Split the do-everything bot: one job, plus a clear never-without-asking list

One bot that does everything gets vague and unreliable.

What hurt

TheodosianMind (@TheodosianMind7) split after the all-in-one bot failed. Not affiliated with xAI.

What to install or create

Each bot gets one job and two lists: what it may do alone, and what it must never do without asking.

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/TheodosianMind7/status/2109219753403330830 (credit @TheodosianMind7).
  2. 2List the jobs your current mega-bot juggles.
  3. 3Create one bot per job with a one-sentence mission.
  4. 4Write each bot's do-alone vs ask-first lists.
  5. 5Run a week; merge only if two bots truly share one job.

Approval fence

Sends, spends, deletes and logins stay on the ask-first list.

What to tweak

Clarity on "never" beats a longer prompt.
