How I set up and run a Grok Bot safely
Six rules I follow on every bot, whether it answers leads for an agent or sorts receipts for a bookkeeper.
Every Grok Bot I set up follows the same six rules, built from Grok Bot's own security documentation. They keep your accounts yours and limit what the bot can do without you.
| Rule | Why |
|---|---|
| 1. One bot, one job | A narrow job gives reliable results and needs fewer logins |
| 2. Your account, your plan, your logins | The bot lives on your account, so it stays yours |
| 3. Least access | All of one person's bots share one computer, so each login is connected only when a job needs it |
| 4. Approvals on risky actions | Anything sent, bought or deleted waits for you |
| 5. No saved payment cards | Grok Bot can use a saved card without a separate approval |
| 6. A monthly check | Logins expire, sites change and routines drift |
