Automate parts of a PM job with morning briefs and triage
The poster trains Grok Bots to do part of their job, including a Linear-based daily brief that spawned triage agents before becoming hard to manage. ·
Done withGrok Bot
- What they did
- In the thread, one commenter says they built a PM- and Linear-specific Grok Bot to prepare a daily morning brief of top priorities from Linear and to spawn triage cloud agents. They reviewed its output themselves, tried retraining it by telling it to be more specific and proactive in certain situations, then deleted it when its summaries stayed vague and its behavior got more verbose and unhelpful.
- How it went
- It did automate part of the workflow enough to be worth trying, but the commenter says the bot became hard to manage within about a week. Their example brief omitted key context like why a ticket was blocked, so they scrapped that bot instead of keeping it in the loop.
- Worth knowing
- The main catch was prompt drift: after about a week, the bot’s tone and summaries degraded enough that managing it outweighed the benefit.
Try it yourself with Grok Bot
Each weekday at [time], pull the issues in [Linear team or project] that were created or changed in the last day and write me a morning brief with what's new, what's blocked, and what needs my decision. Propose a triage label and owner for each new issue, but do not change anything until I approve. Keep the brief under one page, and start with just this one workflow before adding more.
