How to add it to Grok Bot
- Tap Copy skill above.
- Paste it into a chat with one of your Bots and send. The Bot saves it as a skill. Private skills are shared by all your Bots, though a Bot may need the right connector or login to use one.
- To use it, type / in the desktop composer and pick Weekly hours saved report.
- Don't see it? Open Connect apps → Your plugins → Manage plugins and skills and check it's listed under Private skills.
- Try it once on a safe example. If you want it on a schedule, ask the Bot to create a routine that runs it, then use Test run before turning it on.
