One-page job brief: sentence, reader, three lanes
Bots with a long prompt and no job drift into six half-done things.
What hurt
ShareGrokBots published a six-part one-page brief: one-sentence job, who reads where, Do/Ask-first/Never lanes, inputs, definition of done, and how you will judge it. Write it in ten minutes; if you cannot say the job in one sentence, it is two bots. Not affiliated with xAI.
What to install or create
Rewrite each bot's brief from the six parts. Split bots that fail the one-sentence test.
Bots
Any hired bot
Lives under a one-page brief with Never lane first.
Plugins
None on day one. Follow the first-run steps.
Files
job-brief.md. One sentence, reader, three lanes, inputs, done-when, judgment.
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/ShareGrokBots/status/2109662595351212111 (credit @ShareGrokBots).
- 2Pick one drifting bot.
- 3Write the six parts: one-sentence job, reader/place, Do/Ask/Never, inputs, done-when, how you judge.
- 4If the sentence fails, split into two bots before adding connectors.
- 5Paste the brief at the top of the bot and run one task that must hit Ask-first.
Approval fence
Do not expand permissions while rewriting briefs.
What to tweak
Steal the six-part page. One sentence is the hire test.
