Grok Bot makes the team channel an agent interface

Grok Bot brings an AI participant into team channels, shifting the interface from a private chat to a shared operational context.

• The release positions the bot as a teammate invoked inside an existing group conversation.
• Shared-channel use makes input context and generated responses visible to more than one participant.
• The beta framing signals that permissions, failure recovery, and behavioral expectations are still part of the product work.

A channel agent is not a chatbot with a new surface. It needs scoped memory, identity, auditable actions, mention discipline, permission checks, and a clean way to separate suggestion from execution.

Use a shared agent to prepare a review packet, then preserve the comments it acted on, ignored, and escalated. The artifact should reveal whether collaboration improved—not merely that a bot was present.
