The prompt

Prompt
Adapt this outline from the official Grok Bot use cases.

Investigate the metric regression since the named release or event. Review dashboards, traces, and flamegraphs; identify the highest-confidence hotspot; return a short write-up with screenshots and direct links. Separate facts from hypotheses. Do not change alerts or production settings.

Rules: never invent a measurement; if access is blocked, say so.

How it's set up

Official Product Performance: https://docs.x.ai/grok-bot/use-cases

  1. Connect observability tools read-first.
  2. Use routines for recurring health reports — not unsupervised prod edits.
  3. Distinct from workforce-checker-for-stuck-bots on this site.

Why it works

Incident bots that flip flags are scary. A citation-heavy investigation pack is what on-call actually wants.

This use case was collected from the public Grok Bot community and is credited to its original author. Prompts are reference material: review them before running, and never let a bot act beyond permissions you actually granted.
