Weekly backup: skills, routines, and Bot computer files
A wiped bot computer or lost skill leaves you rebuilding from memory.
What hurt
@milleratr tip: have bots backup their skills and routines once a week, and also backup files on the Grok Bot computer — tell them to save to storage you choose and create a routine that runs as often as you like. Tip only. Not affiliated with xAI.
What to install or create
Pick storage → instruct backup of skills/routines/files → weekly routine → Test.
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
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/milleratr/status/2117027136523436518 (credit @milleratr).
- 2Pick storage you control (Drive, private repo, etc.).
- 3Tell each important bot to export skills + routines there, and copy key files from the Bot computer.
- 4Create a weekly (or denser) routine that runs the backup.
- 5Test once and open the backup to confirm it's readable.
Approval fence
Backup destination must be your storage; never paste vault secrets into the backup chat.
What to tweak
Steal weekly backup before the next wipe; storage you control.
