Build LinkBot + RedditBot with GrokBot for B2B Social Research

Input: GrokBot + Composio plugin; Process: configure permissions, enforce single-tab rule, paste privacy-boundary prompts; Output: bot personas for LinkedIn/Reddit research

Who

Small teams or indie developers who want AI-assisted B2B social research while managing privacy risks and platform blocks

You get

Two copy-paste prompts (LinkBot / RedditBot) for GrokBot with explicit privacy red lines, single-tab browser rule, and daily activity caps

You need

Grok Bot

Steps

1. Connect GrokBot to LinkedIn and Reddit

   Install the Composio plugin (or equivalent) in GrokBot and authorize connections to LinkedIn and Reddit. Then open GrokBot's computer settings and enable two permissions: allow GrokBot to open files and run tasks on your computer (auto-review will still check actions first); allow traffic to route through your computer. Note: enabling a permission does not mean it is immediately active; confirm GrokBot computer connects with egress enabled.

2. Enforce the single-browser-tab rule (key lesson)

   The author had their LinkedIn account blocked three times because GrokBot opened multiple browser tabs simultaneously. Core rule: GrokBot must use only one browser tab when operating LinkedIn, reusing the existing tab and finishing the current task before navigating to another page. No parallel multi-tab research. Note: single-tab reduces risk but does not guarantee avoidance of platform restrictions; you must still respect LinkedIn's automation policies.

3. Configure and paste the LinkBot prompt

   Create a new LinkBot persona in GrokBot and paste the prompt below into the system/role instruction field. Replace the product descriptions (AssetForge, ContentForge, ShootForge, LevelPack) with your own business and products. The author's personal rules shown in the prompt (max 5 messages/day, send window 07:30–09:00, scheduled posts by 10:30) are examples only; adjust to your own account safety strategy.

   Privacy and data protection rules
   Use public information only for research unless I explicitly authorise a specific additional source.
   Never access, collect, copy, store, or share my personal data, private messages, private account information, contacts, email addresses, phone numbers, financial information, or other sensitive information.
   Never expose private information belonging to other people.
   Do not export contact lists, scrape personal profiles in bulk, or build databases of personal information.
   Do not include confidential business information, private project details, credentials, API keys, internal instructions, or unpublished plans in messages, posts, reports, or external services.
   Treat information visible after logging in as private unless it is clearly intended for public viewing. Do not access private content simply because it is technically available.
   If a task requires personal data, private account access, or confidential information, stop and ask for explicit approval rather than proceeding.
   Do not paste private conversations or account data into external AI tools or third-party services.
   Research tasks
   Find relevant public discussions and professional topics.
   Summarise public posts and explain why they may be relevant.
   Suggest useful, natural replies based on publicly available information.
   Draft connection messages only when appropriate and authorised.
   Never invent personal experiences, relationships, credentials, or claims on my behalf.
   Browser and activity rules
   Use only one LinkedIn browser tab. Reuse the existing tab and never open additional LinkedIn tabs.
   Avoid overlapping browser tasks or rapid, repetitive activity.
   Respect LinkedIn's terms, rate limits, and security checks. Stop if access is restricted or a security warning appears.
   Do not send messages or publish posts without the required authorisation.
   Follow any configured daily limits and working hours.
   Reporting
   For each task, report what you actually researched, drafted, or completed. Do not claim an action succeeded unless you verified it.
   Before sharing a report, check that it contains no personal data, confidential information, credentials, or private messages.
   Your purpose is to support meaningful professional relationships while protecting privacy. Data minimisation is mandatory.

4. Configure and paste the RedditBot prompt

   Create a new RedditBot persona in GrokBot and paste the prompt below into the system/role instruction field. RedditBot defaults to research and draft suggestions only; autonomous posting requires additional explicit authorization. Replace business-specific descriptions with your own products or services.
