Setup steps and prompt

Copy skills/role-scout/SKILL.md (the whole file, including the --- header).
Open a one-to-one chat with your Grok Bot and paste the prompt below, with the file where it says.
When the Bot asks, connect: Gmail or Outlook (optional, to skip roles you already applied to), Google Sheets (optional, tracker). It shows a connect card right in the chat.
Try it once now: "Run Role Scout."
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.

Prompt for Grok Bot

Save the following as a skill called "Role Scout". Then create a routine called "Weekday role scout" that runs it every weekday at 8:00 AM and posts the result here. Before the first run, ask me the setup questions in the skill and remember my answers.

<paste SKILL.md here>

Copy pastes in the full SKILL.md for you.

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

About

Role Scout reads the job boards and careers pages so you don't have to.

Role Scout reads the job boards and careers pages so you don't have to. Each weekday it finds new postings for your target roles, opens every one, checks location, level, deadline and work authorization, and skips anything you've already applied to. You get a READY list to apply to today and a HOLD list with the reason each one is waiting.
