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).
Runs
On demand
Read from its description, not a stated setting — confirm the routine inside Grok Bot.
Usage
Only when you run it
It only runs when you ask, so it only uses your plan's allowance when you use it.
Trades or moves money?
Not stated
The description doesn't say either way. Read the instructions in Grok Bot before connecting any account. Our advice: research and alerts only. Never give a template trading, transfer or withdrawal rights.

The creator's logins, files and chats, custom code, MCP servers, API keys or private skills

The share link answered on x.ai. That is not a safety rating.
General guidance for money bots
Treat financial output as decision support. Do not grant trading, transfer, purchase, or billing-change permission without a clear approval step.

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 Email, Google Drive.
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.

This one runs when you ask, so you control the spend. Long multi-step jobs still use more than quick ones.
