GREG Devlog #3 — Making Him More Than Just a Bot
GREG started out as a simple Slack bot with a few random commands, but I’ve been slowly turning him into something a lot more interesting.
This update focused on two major things: achievements and automation.
🏆 Improved Achievement System
I upgraded GREG’s achievement system so it can actually track interactions with the bot and reward users for using different features. The idea is to make discovering GREG’s commands feel a little more like a game.
📰 Daily Reporter
GREG can now automatically post a daily report at 9 AM Eastern. It pulls together:
🌦️ Weather around Hack Club HQ
🐈 A fresh cat fact
🚀 A random space fact
😂 A fresh joke
🤖 Greg’s completely unnecessary take on the day
I also got GREG running as a system service, so he can stay online without me having to manually start him.
It’s pretty cool seeing something that started as “let’s make a funny Slack bot” slowly turn into an actual little system with APIs, automation, achievements, and its own personality.
Current status: GREG is alive, online, and probably judging everyone. 🗿🤖
