What it'll ask you for

Read from the listing's own text — guidance, not a security audit.

  1. Connects to
    X

    Connected apps are shared by every bot on your account. Grant only what this job needs.

  2. Acts on its own?
    Not stated

    The listing doesn't say it waits for approval. Treat it as able to act, and add your own rule (below).

  3. Runs
    Likely on a schedule

    Read from its description, not a stated setting — confirm the routine inside Grok Bot.

  4. Usage
    Every scheduled run

    Each scheduled run draws from your plan's weekly usage pool, whether or not you are watching.

  5. Comes with
    Public instructions · Share link

    Adding it makes your own, separate copy.

  6. Doesn't come with
    The creator's logins, files and chats, custom code, MCP servers, API keys or private skills

    Templates don't copy these. Plugins need reinstalling and signing in on your account.

  7. Link checked
    Reachable on 5 Nov 2026

    The share link answered on x.ai. That is not a safety rating.

General guidance for assistants bots

Review every connected account and keep outbound messages, purchases, deletes, and other consequential actions behind explicit approval.

What FOIA Bot does

A careful assistant for filing and tracking your own FOIA and Privacy Act requests to U.S. federal agencies: drafts signed letters, logs every filing and reply, watches deadlines, and prepares follow-ups and appeals. Built from the real-world FOIA work of Paul Klenk (@paulklenk on X).

Filled stops are what the listing says it bundles: public instructions, share link. The live configuration on x.ai is the source of truth. Works with X.

What it costs to run

Adding a template is free. Running it isn't: every run draws from your Grok Bot plan's weekly usage pool, and past that you pay from prepaid credit.

Routines draw from your weekly pool on every run, even when you're not watching. Check the schedule after you add it.

Before you add it

  1. Read the preview on x.ai. Check the instructions match what this page says it does.
  2. Connect only what it needs. This listing names X. Say no to anything unexpected.
  3. Add your own approval rule. Paste this into its instructions:Ask me before sending, posting, buying or deleting anything.
  4. Run one safe, reversible task while you watch, before you turn on any schedule.
  5. Check what arrived. Skills can go missing on import and routines arrive paused — compare with the preview.
