The Future Workflow: Multiple Specialized Agents

I sit down with Alex Finn to break down how he sets up Moltbot (formally Clawdbot) as a proactive AI employee he treats like a teammate named Henry. We walk through the core workflow: Henry sends a daily morning brief, researches while Alex sleeps, and ships work as pull requests for review. Alex explains the setup that makes this work; feeding the bot deep personal and business context, then setting clear expectations for proactive behavior. We cover model strategy (Opus as “brain,” Codex as “muscle”), a “Mission Control” task tracker Henry built, hardware options, and the security mindset around prompt injection and account access.

Key Points

• I get the most leverage when I treat the agent like a proactive teammate with clear expectations and rich context.

• Henry delivers compounding value by shipping work for review (pull requests) based on trend monitoring and conversation memory.

• I separate “brain” and “muscle” by delegating heavy coding to Codex while using Opus for reasoning and direction.

• I track autonomous work with a dedicated “Mission Control” board so progress stays visible over time.

• I keep risk contained by controlling environment and account access, especially around email and prompt injection.
