Constraints
Requires a Grok Bot account. Source reports the Oct 23, 2026 routine upgrade: about 300 total runs per hour (up from 100), and routines can start from an event (e.g., a Slack message or a GitHub notification). Source does not state auto-enablement or give UI switch / external-connection steps; numbers follow platform rolling updates.
What they did
Author hallway247 reported Grok Bot's Oct 23, 2026 routine upgrade: total execution limit raised from 100 to 300 per hour, plus new event-triggered capabilities (Slack messages, GitHub notifications, etc.). Author advises keeping trigger conditions as narrow as possible, avoiding broad listeners like 'Every new message'.
How it went
Author reported product feature changes (author_report); no personal usage results or performance data provided.
Worth knowing
~300/hour is a total cap across routines, not per-routine. Slack/GitHub are examples only; source gives no config steps or selectable-source list. Source does not claim the feature auto-enables.
Steps
Note the Oct 23 Routine quota change
Per source: after the Oct 23, 2026 routine upgrade, routines can run up to about 300 times an hour in total (up from 100). Actual quota is subject to platform rolling updates.
Routines may start from an event, not only a clock
Per source: a routine does not have to run on a clock; it can start from an event, like a Slack message or a GitHub notification (examples only — source does not list selectable UI options or connection steps).
Keep the trigger narrow
Per source: keep the trigger narrow. Broad "Every new message" listeners create noise and eat into usage.
