My dad has been interested in agents ever since I showed him my openclaw setup back in January. @bot is the first one I felt comfortable recommending. All it took was a 45-minute call. Here's how I structured it: - get SuperGrok - download Grok Bot - explain "a team of agents" conceptually - run the in-app onboarding flow - create his first agent - explain the agents' computers - do a browser takeover (Yahoo doesn't have a connector) - use the first agent to create a second, specialized one - set up a routine (inbox updates 3x a day) The main point of confusion was connectors vs. the computer. He auth'd the Google Workspace connector, then assumed the computer was logged in to his Google account too. I explained the computer as just another tool, not the agent's main workstation. If a specialized tool doesn't exist for what you need, that's when the agent reaches for the computer. What really sold him was the first inbox update. It worked exactly as he wanted, even catching something from my mom this morning that he forgot about. By the end of the call he was a kid in a candy store. Too many ideas to choose from.
