00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:09,980
Welcome to Grok Bot Release Notes.

2
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:11,760
Brought to you by Jellypod AI.

3
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:16,820
Last time we talked about the shopping
carousels in Grok Bot 0.78.1.

4
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:19,960
Today we're pivoting to the other half of
that same release,

5
00:00:20,300 --> 00:00:22,240
the part aimed at teams and enterprises.

6
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:28,800
Version 0.78.1 was released October 27,
2026, and it also includes

7
00:00:29,020 --> 00:00:30,080
0.78.0.

8
00:00:31,132 --> 00:00:34,851
Let's start with the team dashboard,
because this is where a manager actually

9
00:00:34,892 --> 00:00:35,752
governs Bots.

10
00:00:36,432 --> 00:00:40,432
On the dashboard, a section called Bot
computers now groups setup scripts,

11
00:00:40,752 --> 00:00:43,312
setup files, and team secrets together.

12
00:00:43,792 --> 00:00:47,252
And there's one Security and compliance
card that holds the computer controls.

13
00:00:47,872 --> 00:00:51,732
So instead of hunting across screens, the
things that define how a Bot's computer

14
00:00:51,772 --> 00:00:54,392
gets built and locked down sit in one
place.

15
00:00:55,090 --> 00:00:58,450
Then there's an Enterprise setting,
Terminate Inactive Computers.

16
00:00:58,930 --> 00:01:03,170
With it on, a computer counts as inactive
after 30 days without a message to any of

17
00:01:03,210 --> 00:01:03,770
its Bots.

18
00:01:04,070 --> 00:01:05,170
That's the official wording.

19
00:01:05,690 --> 00:01:09,610
It's a housekeeping control, and I'd read
it as a way to stop forgotten computers

20
00:01:09,630 --> 00:01:10,250
from lingering.

21
00:01:10,790 --> 00:01:13,650
That part is my interpretation, not
something the notes spell out.

22
00:01:14,382 --> 00:01:15,742
Sharing got tighter too.

23
00:01:16,162 --> 00:01:20,822
In the Share dialog, Who has access now
lists your team and organization,

24
00:01:21,282 --> 00:01:23,942
and a Team Bot can be limited to Only you.

25
00:01:24,602 --> 00:01:29,542
If your team limits sharing, the share
controls say Only team admins can share Bots.

26
00:01:30,142 --> 00:01:35,522
In the Library, Team Bot rows show a Pin
button on hover, and a pinned row keeps its

27
00:01:35,582 --> 00:01:36,262
pin visible.

28
00:01:36,962 --> 00:01:42,222
The admin page also now says Shared Bots,
with Manage Shared Bots and Create Bot.

29
00:01:42,860 --> 00:01:44,880
Now the piece I think matters most.

30
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,700
Managers can add logins to a Team Bot's
own Vault.

31
00:01:49,260 --> 00:01:54,200
You go to Configure, then Tools, and the
Bot signs in with those logins for the

32
00:01:54,260 --> 00:01:54,580
team.

33
00:01:55,220 --> 00:01:59,480
So a manager sets up the credential once,
and the Bot does the sign in on behalf of

34
00:01:59,520 --> 00:01:59,940
the team.

35
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,940
The notes don't describe exactly how
secrets are shielded in chat,

36
00:02:04,060 --> 00:02:05,400
so I won't claim more than that.

37
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,400
But it pairs with the Vault work from the
previous release,

38
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:12,340
where the Bot's own Vault holds logins and
you approve purchases.

39
00:02:13,008 --> 00:02:15,888
Background routines got smarter about
missing access.

40
00:02:16,408 --> 00:02:20,808
When a Team Bot routine needs one of your
connectors, it asks in the routine's Slack

41
00:02:20,848 --> 00:02:21,988
thread and tags you.

42
00:02:22,428 --> 00:02:25,028
Rather than just stalling, it pulls the
right person in.

43
00:02:25,668 --> 00:02:29,648
And in Slack, people whose account isn't
linked now learn that some features are

44
00:02:29,708 --> 00:02:33,048
limited, and how to link it, including in
threads the Bot follows.

45
00:02:33,695 --> 00:02:35,775
Next, how the Bot behaves out on the web.

46
00:02:36,575 --> 00:02:40,555
The Bot's browser now types one character
at a time and moves the mouse on every

47
00:02:40,595 --> 00:02:41,655
website it fills in.

48
00:02:42,255 --> 00:02:43,195
The notes just say that.

49
00:02:43,235 --> 00:02:44,175
They don't say why.

50
00:02:44,775 --> 00:02:48,195
My guess is it makes the browsing look
more like a person, but treat that as

51
00:02:48,255 --> 00:02:48,875
speculation.

52
00:02:49,570 --> 00:02:53,269
When the Bot lands on sign in pages for
Cloudflare, Coinbase,

53
00:02:53,450 --> 00:02:58,530
Gusto, YouTube, Railway, Google Ads, Meta
Ads, or TikTok for Business,

54
00:02:58,970 --> 00:02:59,970
it offers that connector.

55
00:03:00,470 --> 00:03:02,990
That's a nudge toward the cleaner,
connected route.

56
00:03:03,690 --> 00:03:07,350
And there's a fix for routing: with Route
traffic through this computer on,

57
00:03:07,610 --> 00:03:11,670
Settings says when the computer is asleep
and that routing reconnects when it wakes.

58
00:03:12,330 --> 00:03:16,310
Also, pages no longer fail right away when
only another host on them is refused.

59
00:03:16,845 --> 00:03:19,105
A few workspace fixes you'll feel daily.

60
00:03:19,645 --> 00:03:23,745
Copy on a reply keeps headings, lists, and
links when you paste into Slack,

61
00:03:24,085 --> 00:03:28,305
Gmail, Docs, or Notion, and copied
selections paste as markdown.

62
00:03:28,985 --> 00:03:32,225
Gmail drafts the Bot writes in plain text
open in rich text,

63
00:03:32,485 --> 00:03:35,165
so they read well on a phone and send
without hard line breaks.

64
00:03:35,885 --> 00:03:39,765
Clicking a webhook routine opens its
details, including the webhook URL.

65
00:03:40,467 --> 00:03:41,747
And one safety fix.

66
00:03:42,287 --> 00:03:46,727
When the Bot's computer has been refusing
saves, Reset and Recover keep the current

67
00:03:46,787 --> 00:03:48,887
disk instead of restoring an older backup.

68
00:03:49,507 --> 00:03:54,047
Also, Bots using the built-in code review
tools act with your access and never

69
00:03:54,107 --> 00:03:55,507
approve your own pull request.

70
00:03:56,297 --> 00:03:57,657
So how do you use this?

71
00:03:58,217 --> 00:04:02,717
If you manage a team, open the dashboard
and check the Security and compliance card,

72
00:04:03,257 --> 00:04:06,177
then look at the Vault under Configure and
Tools.

73
00:04:06,757 --> 00:04:09,657
Set sharing rules deliberately, and if
you're on Enterprise,

74
00:04:10,057 --> 00:04:12,597
decide whether the 30 day inactive rule
fits you.

75
00:04:13,237 --> 00:04:13,937
That's the episode.

76
00:04:14,277 --> 00:04:14,777
See you next time.
