Why it matters
Automation used to mean wiring up rigid rules. Agents can handle the messy, in-between steps that rules miss, which makes many more workflows worth automating. It is one of 65 sightings filed under Automation on Agent Sightings (number 56 by interest), and one of 86 involving Grok Bot.
How you could try it
Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into Grok Bot or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.
Automation design: teach a bot a workflow by screen recording. Specify triggers, steps, and failure modes before enabling sends or deletes.
Tip: Start small: run it once on a low-stakes example, read what the agent did, and only then let it run on real work.
