What they did

A therapist and author fed years of collected research and the therapy tools she uses with clients into a private library run by Grok Bots. A librarian bot tagged and filed the first import into collections and keeps it maintained without her. A research bot points out thin areas and fills gaps. When she needs something for a client, it builds a printable, cited handout from what's in the library (or searches for more sources), she reviews it, and it gets added back in. Her second use: she gave a bot screenshots of her YouTube thumbnails, it found the videos and drafted a post for each on her website with the metadata, and after she reviewed them she set a routine to do it after every new video.

Prompt

Cleaned version rewritten from the source — not a direct quote.

Act as the librarian for my research library at [folder or Drive location]. Tag and file every document into collections by topic, and keep a short index with title, source, date and tags. Each week, check for new files I add and file them too. Tell me which topics are thin so I can research them. When I ask for a client handout on [topic], build a printable one using only sources in the library, cite each source, and flag anything you had to look up outside it. After I approve a handout, add it to the library.
