Grok Heavy power user tips: ephemeral bots, local images, 30% context checks
alexcovo_eth · x · 2026-10-21
A paying user shared 6 tips for stretching Grok Heavy subscription usage:
- Bots are ephemeral — retire each one gracefully with saved files and a handoff prompt for its replacement
- Images kill usage — have bots save images to a local folder with pointers instead of carrying heavy image context every turn
- Manager bots only relay — never let a coordinator bot do coding or strategy that consumes real usage
- One project, one goal — straying bloats the bot's context
- Dedicated "Simple Jack" bot for low-value chores like email
- Health check at 30% usage — that's where context bloat starts kicking in and usage drains fast
