Turn a team conversation into a content brief, then hand the bot to the person who owns content

The best content ideas are buried in calls and internal threads, and only you know how to dig them out.

What hurt

Eric Siu (@ericosiu) builds content bots in Grok Bot and brings them into Slack so the team can use them. He shared the first assignment he'd give a content lead. Not affiliated with xAI.

What to install or create

Give the bot an approved transcript, your content inventory and your real writing guidelines. It finds an unanswered buyer question, shows the source passage next to the closest existing article, and drafts a brief in your style with the reason it deserves to exist. Work through the first brief together, save the corrections, then hand the workflow to the person who owns content.

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

Transcript-to-brief assignment (author-quoted)

Quoted from @ericosiu — as published. Do not invent a second system prompt.

Read this approved transcript and compare it with our existing articles. Find a question our buyers care about that we haven't answered well. Show me the source passage and the closest existing article. Draft a brief in our style and explain why this deserves to be made.

First run

  1. 1Read https://x.com/ericosiu/status/2109006664087240810 (credit @ericosiu).
  2. 2Give the bot your content inventory and your actual writing guidelines.
  3. 3Run the assignment on one approved transcript and fix the first brief together.
  4. 4Save the instructions and corrections that got you there as a skill.
  5. 5Hand it to your content owner and watch where they get stuck.

Approval fence

Briefs and drafts only; publishing stays with the content owner.

What to tweak

If you are the only one using a bot, you got faster; when the team runs it, the department changes.
