Grok Bot for Developers: Essentials — Incidents & Performance Playbook

A focused 45-minute playbook for incidents and performance work with Grok Bot. Learners hand a Bot a sampled request log and the deploy log from a latency regression, have it measure before and after on its cloud computer, and separate facts from hypotheses with the highest-impact cause first. They finish by setting up a recurring, read-only health report as a Shared Bot (Shared Bots were formerly called Team Bots), or by writing that setup down, with no unsupervised production changes.

What this course covers

The course runs across 3 topics, each one a short adaptive session rather than a recorded lecture. The tutor explains the idea, works an example, checks understanding, and adjusts the next step to the answer given.

Investigating a regression across dashboards, traces and logs — Learners give a Bot the evidence (attached files here; at work, read-only monitoring and log plugins) and have it measure each endpoint before and after the deploy with a script in its terminal, so every number can be re-run. It lines up the timeline of deploys, alerts and errors.
Facts vs hypotheses, highest impact first — The Bot reports facts with their source line, states each cause as a hypothesis with evidence for and against, ranks by user impact, and rules out red herrings such as a problem that existed before the deploy or a symptom mistaken for the cause. Fixes come back as recommendations a person approves; the Bot changes nothing in production.
Shared Bots: a recurring health report the team can ask — Learners set the job up as a Shared Bot with a read-only monitoring key the owner adds under Secrets, ticketing that each teammate connects with their own account, and an investigation skill. A daily health report routine only reads and posts to a shared Slack channel; learners without Shared Bots write the setup down for equal credit.

Skills you build

Results are measured against named skills in the OneRange taxonomy of more than 10,000 skills, so a manager sees proficiency per skill rather than a completion tick.

Who it is for

Software developers. The material is pitched at beginner level, and takes roughly 45 minutes at a typical pace. Because every session adapts, someone who already knows a topic moves through it quickly instead of sitting through an explanation they do not need.

It sits in the Tool: Grok Bot track of the Vero AI Catalog, and can be assigned to one person, a team, or the whole company.

How it is delivered and assessed

Delivery is conversational and interactive, including code lab, branching scenario, guided lab exercises. There is no video to sit through and no slide deck to click past.

Understanding is checked with a lab assessment of 5 items, with a pass mark of 70%.

Administrators can copy this course into their own library and adapt it — edit the outline, change the duration, swap the assessment format, or ground it in internal documentation so answers cite the company's own source material.

Grok Bot: Essentials — Get everyday work done with Grok Bot. Learners set up a focused Bot, write clear requests, attach files, sign in safely, connect apps, handle approvals, and start using one of their team's Shared Bots (formerly called Team Bots) in the app and in Slack. By the end they can take a read-and-prepare task from request to a reviewed, unsent result.
Grok Bot: Essentials — Sales & Accounts Playbook — A focused, 45-minute playbook for sales and account work in Grok Bot. Learners have a Bot research and score accounts against an ideal customer profile, prepare review-ready outreach drafts that are never sent, and build a weekly account-health watch list - then see the same job as one Bot the whole sales team can use through Shared Bots (formerly called Team Bots).
Grok Bot: Essentials — Chief of Staff Playbook — A focused, 45-minute playbook for running a daily digest with Grok Bot. Learners have a Bot pull email, Slack, calendar and notes into one source-linked digest, map it to priorities and the decisions an executive owes, tune out noise and schedule it - then see how a leadership team could share the same job through Shared Bots (formerly called Team Bots).
Grok Bot: Intro — A short first look at Grok Bot, the app where named AI teammates called Bots finish work inside your tools. Learners see how it differs from Grok, how a Bot uses its own cloud computer and stops for approval, and how Shared Bots (formerly called Team Bots), one Bot the whole team chats with, differ from your own Bots, then hand a first Bot one small read-only task.
Grok Bot: Essentials — Finance & Operations Playbook — A focused, 45-minute playbook for weekly expense review with Grok Bot. Learners have a Bot reconcile a week of expenses against policy with a cited section for every flag, prepare one follow-up draft per owner, and prove the totals tie back to the source - with nothing approved, changed or sent - then see how a finance team could share the same job through Shared Bots (formerly called Team Bots).
Cursor & Grok Bot for Developers Pathway — One path for engineering teams that use Cursor with Grok Bot included. A placement check for each tool sends you to the right Cursor course and the right Grok Bot course. Also includes 8 optional playbooks (Testing, Code Review, Refactoring & Migration and Docs & Onboarding for Cursor; Testing, Code Review, Incidents & Performance and Docs & Onboarding for Grok Bot) to take any time after Essentials; they don't count toward the certificate.
Grok Bot for Developers Pathway — Grok Bot for engineers and technical operators: Bots for engineering work, custom connections and secrets, event-triggered routines, engineering Shared Bots (formerly called Team Bots), and administering and securing Grok Bot across a company. Also includes 4 optional playbooks (Testing, Code Review, Incidents & Performance, Docs & Onboarding) to take any time after Essentials; they don't count toward the certificate.

Frequently asked questions
