What they did

He made a Grok Bot that produces launch videos by calling Claude Opus 5.5 to direct and edit and Codex image generation for the visuals, and writes the scripts itself.

Result (as claimed)

Shared as a working bot with sample output.

Tools they used

Cost: Grok Bot: from $30/mo; Claude Opus 5.5: from $4 in / $20 out per 1M tokens; OpenAI Codex: free plan, paid from $8/mo.

Set it up

  1. Collect your inputs

    List what goes in (raw footage, script, topic list or audio) and the exact output you want, for example 5 vertical clips under 45 seconds. Put inputs in one folder.

  2. Set up the tools

    Open Grok Bot, Claude Opus 5.5, OpenAI Codex. Connect accounts only where needed and note any per-minute or per-credit limits on the free plan before you start.

  3. Run one piece end to end

    Make a single output first. Check pacing, captions, voice and framing by watching it on a phone.

  4. Turn it into a repeatable recipe

    Save the prompts and settings that worked as a template so the next run takes minutes, then batch.

  5. Review before you post

    Watch every output before publishing. Check rights for music, likeness and footage, and label AI content where the platform requires it.

Copy the full setup prompt

Paste into your agent and it will walk you through the setup, asking before anything that sends, posts or spends.

You are helping me set up this AI use case end to end in Claude Code.

Please:
1. Ask me 3 short questions about my situation (accounts I have, budget, what I want the output to look like).
2. Propose a step-by-step plan using these tools or cheaper alternatives, with the time and cost of each step. Use official pricing pages; say "check pricing" if unsure.
3. Then do the setup with me one step at a time, waiting for my OK before anything that sends messages, posts publicly, spends money or deletes data.
4. Finish with a checklist to run it again next time.

Run 40 Grok Bots through one chief bot for family, work and home

A non-coder talks to one bot, Jarvis, which runs about 40 others: it built a hide-and-seek game of his kitchen scanned in 3D for his kids, reconciles work expenses into Power Apps, runs his 3D printer, built his IT business site and its SEO, drafts email replies that wait for his OK, controls his TV and logs overtime in Notion. Coding goes through Claude and Codex CLIs on his own machines.
