What they did

A user set up one iOS Shortcut that sums his Apple Health stats and emails them to his Grok Bot inbox. Mid-workout he asks "how am I doing?" and gets a report back.

How it went

A short on-demand fitness report from the latest emailed stats.

Worth knowing

Ask your bot for a security review of an email that passed every check

An email from [email protected] landed in a Tesla engineer's inbox. It passed SPF, DKIM and DMARC (the checks that confirm who sent an email) and showed the blue check, but something felt off, so he asked his Grok Bot to do a security review. It found a hidden phishing link, explained why every safety check had passed, and wrote a report to xAI with a proposed fix. He then had it add a security routine that checks his email for anything phishy going forward.
