What they did
A user set up a Grok Bot food prep team under his chief-of-staff bot: a Meal Organiser that knows the lunches and dinners he likes, a Shopper that fills his grocery cart, and a Cooking Bot that walks him through each meal. He says the shopping takes under 3 minutes versus about an hour at the shops or 30 minutes online, and meals take under 20 minutes. He checks out himself.
How it went
He tells his Chief of Staff how many days he needs; the team plans and fills the cart, and he checks out himself.

Prompt
Core command is original; setup is cleaned from the source.
Set up a food prep team for me: three specialist bots reporting to you, my Chief of Staff. Start by asking me for any missing details in my food profile, and show me the proposed bot descriptions before creating them. MY FOOD PROFILE: Diet: [diet or goals]. Servings: [people per meal]. Never include: [allergies, intolerances, dislikes]. Preferences: [cooking time, budget, ingredients]. Grocery store: [store link]. Meal bank: [6-10 meals I like, or suggest some]. 1 - MEAL ORGANISER: When I say how many days and which meals, build a plan from my meal bank. Ask what ingredients I already have. Return the plan and one combined shopping list with quantities. Wait for my approval before handing it to the Shopper. 2 - SHOPPER: Open my grocery store's website and fill the cart with the approved list. Check the existing cart for duplicates. For out-of-stock items pick the closest match within my profile, and flag anything uncertain, especially allergies. Stop before checkout: never choose a delivery slot, place the order or pay. Report the cart total, substitutions and anything you couldn't find. 3 - COOKING: When I name a meal, give me simple steps with prep and cook times, in order, so everything finishes together. For the first store connection, open the website and let me log in myself.
