Say a rule once in shared memory; all bots follow it
Eight bots mean eight places to repeat the same house rules.
What hurt
@JakeBuildsBots’s trick: put standing rules in Grok Bot shared memory so every bot reads them. His three: never use his last name; one update per workday, not eight pings; no payment or sign-up without his OK. Tip only. Not affiliated with xAI.
What to install or create
Open shared memory → write 1–3 standing rules → every bot inherits them.
Bots
Fleet with shared rules
Every bot inherits the same standing rules from shared memory.
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
- 1Read https://x.com/JakeBuildsBots/status/2114499600790818952 (credit @JakeBuildsBots).
- 2In the Grok Bot app, open shared memory (every bot can read).
- 3Add standing rules such as: never use my last name; one update per workday; no payment or sign-up without my OK.
- 4Ask one bot to confirm it sees the rules.
- 5Spot-check another bot on a risky ask — it should refuse until you approve.
Approval fence
Payment and sign-up stay behind your OK.
What to tweak
Steal the three-rule checklist; write yours once.
