Constraints

Set a one-time standing preference in Grok Bot (same barber, time priority, frequency). The bot automatically visits the barbershop booking site about a week ahead, grabs a slot, confirms the booking, and sends a day-before reminder.

What they did

User iLytzki set a one-time standing rule in Grok Bot: same barber, Monday around noon with Wednesday/Thursday fallback, every 3 weeks. The bot then automatically visits the barbershop booking site about a week before each appointment, grabs a slot, confirms the booking, and sends a day-before reminder.

How it went

The author reports the workflow runs as described (author_report), achieving a 'set once, repeat automatically' booking experience.

Worth knowing

1) This uses Grok Bot's built-in agent capabilities; no prompt engineering or workflow configuration is needed. 2) Requires the barbershop to have an online booking site that the bot can access. 3) Specific supported booking sites and handling of CAPTchas/login sessions are not detailed in the source. 4) The exact trigger mechanism for the 3-week cycle (calendar-based vs. last-appointment-based) is unspecified. 5) Not tested by this site; compatibility with different barbershops is unverified.

Steps

  1. Set your standing preference

    Tell Grok Bot your long-term booking preference once: specify the barber, preferred time (Monday around noon), fallback days (Wednesday or Thursday), and frequency (every 3 weeks).

  2. First-test: dry-run the booking grab

    Before enabling automatic booking, run one first-test: have the bot visit the barbershop booking site and, following your rules, only list the barber, time slot, and details it would submit — dry-run display without confirming a real booking (or use a cancellable test slot / test account). Enable live auto-booking only after you confirm the rules and page actions look right.

  3. Let it run automatically

    After the first-test passes, about a week before each appointment the bot will visit the barbershop's booking site and attempt to grab a slot based on your rules.

  4. Receive confirmation and reminder

    After booking, the bot tells you it's secured. It also sends a reminder the day before your haircut.
