WHAT THEY SAY
The claim
The author says it saved them from a $2k pool control system upgrade.
@net_pop asked the bot
Find a way to control the pool system without paying for the upgrade.
Grok Bot: what it did
Found an RJ45 to WiFi converter, helped wire it to the existing control board, found community resources and wrote software to control the pool through Home Assistant.
