4 use cases

  • Install a complete bot team from one Markdown file

    Import a team playbook, review it, and get bots, channels and paused routines in one pass.

    View prompt
    Using the OpenMausBot repo at github.com/milind-soni/OpenMausBot, import the team file at <team-md-url> through Teams → Import and list the bots, channels and connectors it would create. Expected output: a short list of those items with a note on which connections are off by default. Verify that no routine is active before you finish.

  • Share a configured bot team as one file

    Save a working team as one file a colleague can import without your chat history or keys.

    View prompt
    Using the OpenMausBot repo at github.com/milind-soni/OpenMausBot, export the team named <team-name> with Share team and list every item the dialog says the file contains. Expected output: that list and the file path. Verify that the list contains no chat history, keys, passwords or model choices.

  • Let a bot work on your Mac with approval on each step

    Point a bot at your own computer and approve or deny each risky action as an inline card.

    View prompt
    Using the OpenMausBot repo at github.com/milind-soni/OpenMausBot, set up one bot to run the task <task-description> on this Mac after explicit host control opt-in. Expected output: a log of each approval card and the decision made on it. Verify that no action ran without a recorded Allow.

  • Hear overnight bot results read aloud

    Turn on spoken replies so a bot reads its answers as they land, using a voice you pick.

    View prompt
    Using the OpenMausBot repo at github.com/milind-soni/OpenMausBot, set the voice for the bot <bot-name> to <voice-provider> and read one reply aloud.
