New project, new bot: talk it through by voice, research the field first
A bot that jumps straight into building misses the bigger picture.
What hurt
@Texas_Twins_Dad's tip: before any project, create a bot just for it, turn on the microphone and talk about the project, then ask it to research the field before doing anything else, so it sees the bigger picture and knows what you want. Not affiliated with xAI.
What to install or create
Dedicated bot → voice brief → research first → then build.
Bots
Project bot
Owns one project; researches the field before acting.
Plugins
