What the source did
- Pasted a setup prompt so Grok Bot installed the Claude Code and Codex CLIs on its own computer.
- Signed into each CLI once (device/auth flow), then saved model routing into every bot prompt plus shared memory.
- Writing tasks go through Claude; coding and terminal work go through Codex; browser/desktop stays on the bot's normal tools.

Their prompt
From Corey Ganim Their exact wording. Source ↗
Connect my Claude and ChatGPT subscriptions so all of my bots can use them.
1. On your computer, install the Claude Code CLI and the OpenAI Codex CLI (upgrade Node if needed). Start each subscription login (Claude: `claude setup-token`; Codex: `codex login --device-auth`) and send me the sign-in links and codes. I'll sign in and paste back anything you need. Store the Claude token privately and load it automatically.
2. Set the defaults to these models: Claude Opus 5.5 for Claude Code and 6.1 Sol for Codex. Test each one with a quick prompt and tell me which models answered.
3. Add these MODEL ROUTING RULES to every one of my bots' system prompts, including yours. Keep everything else in each prompt exactly as it is:
- Writing (drafts, emails, posts, replies, copy, briefs): write the final text with Claude through the CLI, then review it against the bot's voice rules.
- Coding, scripts, data processing, and terminal work: use Codex.
- Browser and desktop tasks: keep using your normal computer tools.
- If either CLI fails, do the task yourself and say so.
4. Save the same rule to my shared memory so any bot I create later follows it too.
5. When you're done, tell me which bots you updated and confirm both tests passed.
Approval rule
🛡
You complete each CLI sign-in yourself. Sending, buying, posting, and deleting still need a human yes.
Set it up
- Paste the prompt into the bot that owns the computer (or your Chief of Staff bot).
- When it returns sign-in links or codes, complete Claude and Codex login yourself in a browser.
- Confirm the two smoke tests and that routing rules landed in shared memory.
Common failures
⚠
- Login stalls because you skipped the device/auth step; the bot cannot finish OAuth alone.
- Routing never sticks if you only edit one bot; put the rules in shared memory too.
Variations
- Swap which model handles writing vs coding.
- Limit CLI use to one specialist bot instead of every bot.
