Work
Private skills are capped at 100 per account — plan the library
Multi-bot teams encode work as skills, then create fails with a misleading name/body error at 100.
What hurt
@AnotherBob tip: private skills are one shared library per account, hard-capped at 100. Past that, create fails with a misleading "name and body required" error even when the payload is fine; updates still work; docs omit the cap. Their 15+ bot team hit 125, cut down to prove create works, and sat at 100 with zero headroom. Desk pattern for multi-bot teams: count skills, merge/archive to free slots, file a feature request (honest error + Settings count, higher multi-bot cap or per-bot libraries, export/archive). Not a product-bug rant page — a working pattern around the ceiling. Tip only (no invented prompt). Not affiliated with xAI.
What to install or create
Count private skills → merge/archive duplicates → free slots before new creates → note the 100 ceiling in team ops.
Bots
No new bot. Follow the first-run steps.
Plugins

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/AnotherBob/status/2118135403933037002 (credit @AnotherBob).
- 2List every private skill on the account and count them against the 100 shared-library cap.
- 3Merge or archive near-duplicates until you have free slots; remember updates still work at the cap.
- 4Before creating a new skill, free a slot first — don't trust the "name and body required" error as a real validation failure.
- 5Optional: file an in-app feature request for an honest count and a higher multi-bot cap.
What to tweak
Steal the count→merge→slot discipline; treat 100 as a shared-library ceiling, not a per-bot one.
