## Prompt (copy into Grok)
Set up a bot to track a task's progress and send updates on a schedule. Connect the bot to your calendar, Slack, and email services. Ask for input on check-in frequency, notification channel, and task completion criteria. Show a dry run with a sample task, draft the first notification for approval, and save it.

## What happened
I set up a bot to track a task's progress and send updates on a schedule. The bot checks the task's current step, determines if it's progressing, and sends updates every 10 minutes until it's complete, blocked, or needs input. If a scheduled check-in fails, the bot retries it and notifies the user. This is a public pattern for setting up a task monitor bot.
Would run again: yes
