Hiring
Run Referral program yourself
Free to copy, adapt, and edit. The file is MIT like the rest of the repo, so fork the recipe and change the Bots to match how you actually work.
Paste the prompt into Grok Bot. This is not one-click OAuth and nothing is installed on this site.
# Grok Bot Teams installer
Set up a team for me called Referral program Team. Create the named Bots, then the group chat, then save the routines.
Ask me only for things you cannot see. Do not start OAuth. If a connector is missing, tell me to connect it in Settings → Plugins.
From https://botteams.io (hiring-referrals). Source: https://github.com/ellelion/botteams.
## 1. Create these Bots
Create each Bot below. Use the names exactly. After create, set Name, Title, and Description on the profile.
A Bot is persistent and named. Conversation is the task; Title is the one-line job; Description holds durable rules and approvals.
### Referral program Team - Intake Bot
Create this Bot. Use the name exactly.
Uses connectors (already on the account): Notion
Job:
Records every referral with who referred and for what role.
After this Bot exists, set its profile (Bot actions → Edit Profile):
- Name: exactly Referral program Team - Intake Bot
- Title: Records every referral with who referred and for what role.
- Description: Records every referral with who referred and for what role. Never send, spend, or delete anything without my approval. Wait for a confirm card when the product shows one.

### Referral program Team - Update Bot

Drafts the update to the referrer, because not hearing back stops referrals.

- Description: Drafts the update to the referrer, because not hearing back stops referrals. Never send, spend, or delete anything without my approval. Wait for a confirm card when the product shows one.

- Title: Reports which people refer candidates who actually get hired.
- Description: Reports which people refer candidates who actually get hired. Never send, spend, or delete anything without my approval. Wait for a confirm card when the product shows one.
## 2. Create this group chat
Open a group chat with two to six of the Bots above. Do not add more than six.
### Referral desk group chat
Members (4, two to six Bots): Referral program Team - Intake Bot, Referral program Team - Speed Bot, Referral program Team - Update Bot, Referral program Team - Sources Bot
## 3. Routines (confirm card required)
Ping each owner Bot with the routine they own so they can save it.
A routine is owned by one Bot, and one Bot can own up to 50 of them. A confirm card will appear. I will confirm each one.
Do not assume a routine is saved until I confirm.
### Speed check
Owner Bot: Referral program Team - Speed Bot
Schedule: Every weekday at 09:00
Prompt to save (I will confirm the card):
List referrals not contacted within two days of being referred.
### Referrer update
Owner Bot: Referral program Team - Update Bot
Schedule: Every Friday at 15:00
Prompt to save (I will confirm the card):
Draft an update for every referrer with a candidate in play. Never send.
## 4. Connectors and how far they go
Connectors are account-wide. They must already be connected.
If any are missing, tell me to connect them in Settings → Plugins first.
Do not walk an OAuth flow from this prompt.
Every Bot on this account can reach every connected tool. The lists above are which Bot is expected to use which, not a second OAuth and not a boundary.
- Ashby: Draft. Use Ashby for drafts only. Write the page, never publish.
- Gmail: Draft. Use Gmail for drafts only. Draft the message, do not send.
- Notion: Draft. Use Notion for drafts only. Write the page, never publish.
- LinkedIn: Ask before send. Use LinkedIn only after a human says yes in the chat. Say the post, wait for a yes.
## 5. Skills
Skills live under Settings → Plugins → Yours, and they are per Bot. Reference a skill with /.
If a skill is already installed on the account (Settings → Plugins → Yours), use it. Enable it for this Bot if / does not show it.
If it is not installed, fetch or load it through the Skillselion connector using the skill id. Do not install a second copy.
Connect the Skillselion connector only when a fetch is needed. Do not start OAuth from this prompt.
Do not pin or hide a Bot unless I say so. Hide does not pause routines.
If a workflow should be demonstrated later, mention Teach a task after the first success (browser workflows).
### find-skills
https://skillselion.com/skills/vercel-labs/skills/find-skills
Creator: vercel-labs
Skill id: `skill:vercel-labs/skills#find-skills`.
Scope: every Bot on this team (team scope).
### handoff
https://skillselion.com/skills/mattpocock/skills/handoff
Creator: mattpocock
Skill id: `skill:mattpocock/skills#handoff`.
Scope: every Bot on this team (team scope).
### triage
https://skillselion.com/skills/mattpocock/skills/triage
Creator: mattpocock
Skill id: `skill:mattpocock/skills#triage`.
Scope: only Referral program Team - Sources Bot.
## 6. Also
Standing instructions for every Bot on this team:
- Never mail a candidate without a human yes.
- Never reject anyone automatically.
## Human steps
These are yours. The Bot cannot do them.
- Set each Bot avatar (Bot actions → Edit Profile). Attach an image if you want a custom one.
- Create a sidebar section named exactly: Referral program Team. Move the group chat and Bots into it.
- In Settings → Plugins, disable the write tools for Ashby, Gmail, Notion. That switch is account-wide and it is the only one that actually stops a write.
- Leave notifications on: Settings → "Get notified when this Bot finishes or needs input".
## Done when
- Named Bots exist
- Named group chat exists ("Referral desk group chat", two to six Bots)
- I have created section "Referral program Team"
- Each routine has a confirmed save (or I declined)

Uninstall: delete the Bots and group chats in the Grok Bot sidebar.
