# Evidence Tracker

> Know exactly how strong your case file is, criterion by criterion.

- Category: Legal
- Schedule: Monthly, 1st at 9:00 AM
- Works with: Grok Bot, Muse, Dots
- Setup time: 5 minutes
- Version: 1.0.0 (updated 2026-10-31)

## What it does

Evidence Tracker keeps the scoreboard for any case built on criteria, such as a visa petition, a grant, an award or a certification. It lists each criterion from the official source, matches your documents to it, rates the strength honestly, and tells you the single most useful thing to collect next. Once a month it checks what's changed and what's gone stale.

## What you get

- Each criterion rated Strong, Building or Not started
- Linked evidence under each one
- The next item to collect, ranked
- Stale or expiring documents flagged

## Data it uses

- Google Drive, Notion, or uploads
- Web search (official criteria)

## Safety

- Writes or sends: Read-only. Not legal advice. A licensed lawyer must review anything before it is filed or sent.
- Reads: Your evidence list or folder (only what you connect or paste)
- Reads: The official criteria page for your program
- Cost: Low: one run a month, plus on-demand updates when new evidence arrives.
- Warning: Not legal advice. These bots brainstorm and draft; a licensed lawyer must review anything before it is filed or sent.
- Warning: Ratings are a planning aid, not a prediction of the outcome.
- Warning: Evidence files can be sensitive; share only the folder or list it needs.

### Grok Bot (verified)

1. Copy skills/evidence-tracker/SKILL.md (the whole file, including the --- header).
2. Open a one-to-one chat with your Grok Bot and paste the prompt below, with the file where it says.
3. When the Bot asks, connect: Google Drive, Notion, or Sheets (optional, wherever your evidence list lives). It shows a connect card right in the chat.
4. Try it once now: "Run Evidence Tracker."
5. The routine shows in the Bot's info pane (click the Bot's name in the chat header) under Routines, where you can pause or edit it.

Note: Skills and routines are saved by asking the Bot; no settings to dig through.

### Muse (partially-verified)

1. Copy skills/evidence-tracker/SKILL.md.
2. Open Muse and paste the prompt below with the file where it says.
3. Try it: "Run Evidence Tracker." Muse has no skill install for outside skills, so it follows the pasted instructions.
4. Ask Muse to make it a recurring task on the 1st of every month at 9:00 AM. It then shows under the Assistant icon > Upcoming.
5. Muse Code (developer CLI): unzip downloads/evidence-tracker.zip, run `muse skills validate ./evidence-tracker` then `muse skills install ./evidence-tracker --scope user`. Optional: add the BotPlaza connector (https://botplaza.lol/api/mcp) under mcpServers in ~/.config/muse/settings.json.

Note: Recurring tasks and Muse Code skill install are documented by Meta. Installing outside skills in the Muse app is not.

### Dots (partially-verified)

1. Copy skills/evidence-tracker/SKILL.md.
2. Paste the prompt below into your dot's conversation in ChatGPT, with the file where it says.
3. Wait for the dot to confirm the schedule, time zone and end date.
4. Optional: in ChatGPT, Plugins > + > Add custom MCP server with https://botplaza.lol/api/mcp (no authentication). Dots can use installed plugins, but OpenAI hasn't said whether that includes custom ones.
5. Business, Enterprise, Healthcare and Edu workspaces can also upload downloads/evidence-tracker.zip under Plugins > Skills > Create > Upload from your computer.

Note: Dots are available on ChatGPT Pro, Business Premium and Enterprise, and are still rolling out. Pasting instructions in and scheduled check-ins are documented.
