How to use Grok Bot to update help center articles after merged PRs

Damon Chen set up a Grok Bot that checks every merged PR for UI or workflow changes, updates the matching Intercom help article or drafts and publishes a new one, with browser screenshots.

When a PR is merged in [repo], check whether it changes the UI or a user workflow. If so, draft an update to the matching help article, or a new one, with fresh screenshots, and send it to me for review.

How the agent did it

  1. He connected Grok Bot to Intercom and GitHub.
  2. When a PR merges, the bot checks whether it changed the UI or a user workflow.
  3. It decides whether the related Intercom article needs updating.

@damonchen wrote on his first day with Grok Bot that his favourite setup so far connects Intercom and GitHub.

He told his Intercom bot that whenever a pull request is merged, it should check whether the change affected the UI or a user workflow. If it did, the bot decides whether the related Intercom help article needs an update. If there is no article, it drafts a new one and publishes it.

The bot has its own computer. He logged into a test account for his product and the Intercom admin on it, so when an article needs screenshots, the bot opens the browser, captures them and puts them into Intercom.

He says that from that day he might not need anyone to keep the help center up to date, because he wants to build the product rather than babysit help articles.

This is a day-one setup. He does not report how many articles it has updated or drafted, and the post says the bot publishes new articles itself, without describing a review step. The product is his own. Anyone copying this may want the bot to draft changes for review before publishing.

Who it's for: Small software teams whose help docs fall behind the product.
