What they did
A user built a Grok Bot that tracks their own usage. Every morning it shows a simple dashboard with yesterday's usage, the change from the day before and from the same day last week, and how close they are to their weekly limit. It points out where tokens are leaking, shows which bots and routines use the most, and suggests ways to cut usage.

Prompt
Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.
Every morning at [time], check my usage for yesterday and show me a simple dashboard: yesterday's total, the change compared to the day before and to the same day last week, and how close I am to my weekly limit. List which bots and routines used the most, point out anything that looks like waste (routines running too often, repeated failures, long runs that produce nothing), and suggest 2 or 3 specific changes to cut usage. Don't change any routine yourself; ask me first.
