Use bots to hunt jobs and expand rough coding notes
One person uses bots to draft coding prompts from shorthand and another set to search for jobs and prepare applications from their resume materials.
- What they did
- A commenter connected Grok Bot to their developer docs and gave it quick notes while they were away from their desk. The bot turned those scraps into a fuller prompt, then let Cursor begin coding. In a separate setup, they described a small bot team that takes a resume, cover letter, and FAQ sheet, looks for openings, and prepares job applications.
- How it went
- The thread treats both setups as live automations, but it does not say how many applications were sent, whether interviews followed, or how much coding got done. It also leaves the internal job-search process and any human review steps unclear.
- Tips
- Keep the source materials organized before handing work to a bot. If it will submit anything, make it stop and ask before sending an application or making another irreversible change.
Try it yourself with Grok Bot
Review my short, messy notes about [feature, bug, or task] and turn them into a clear coding prompt for Cursor. Use my attached docs at [link or folder] as context, and ask me any needed clarifying questions before you draft the final prompt. Once the prompt is ready, pause and show it to me for approval before you start any code changes.
