Grok Build

Grok Build just got another useful quality-of-life upgrade across prompts, images, permissions, and tool calling Long agent replies in prompt-suggestion transcripts now stay intact instead of getting cut off mid-sentence, pasted images survive yank/undo/history recall, and deployments can now control read_file behavior for skill and instruction files There are also cleaner permission prompts, fixed subagent cancellation overlays, and an important tool-calling fix that sends a leaner inline-only use_tool schema Small update, but it removes several annoying failure points in everyday agent workflows Release Notes: v1.0.38 Features: • Long agent replies in prompt-suggestion transcripts are no longer cut off mid-sentence. • read_file on skill and instruction files can now be configured per deployment. • Pasted images survive yank/undo/history recall and the user is notified when any cannot be sent. Bug Fixes: • Subagent overlays no longer stay stuck showing "Cancelling" after the child turn ends. • Long quo

SpaceXAI is testing Remote Control for Grok Build This is one of the biggest Grok Build updates yet....and the one future I was desperately waiting for Grok Build... it's finally coming You’ll be able to link your computer once through the Grok Build CLI, then control Grok Build remotely from the web and directly from the Grok app on your phone That means Grok Build can keep working on your actual computer while you’re somewhere else with nothing but your phone

Grok Build just got another strong workflow upgrade, especially for people running more background work and multi-agent tasks. Background shell commands now show up as live task rows with streaming output, so you can actually watch what’s happening instead of treating background work like a black box. There’s also a new dashboard preview toggle, plus stronger organization controls for restricting unmanaged hooks. On the reliability side, folder trust in sandbox mode is fixed, pinned agents stay put, config-defined agents are respected properly, MCP plugin authentication is more reliable, and background subagent approval requests now surface instead of silently failing Release Notes: v1.0.36 Features: • New Dashboard preview setting lets you hide the selected-session preview panel on the dashboard. • New policy setting allows organizations to disable hooks that are not from managed policy. • Background shell commands now appear as live task rows with streaming output. Bug Fixes: • grok --sandbox no longer

Grok Build just got another strong performance + reliability upgrade MCP connections now report their real handshake state more accurately, tool searches and calls show much more detail on the daemon path, and /memory gets a much better experience with content search, copy confirmations, faster deletes, and proper support on narrow terminals The biggest performance win is under the hood: syntax highlighting now uses far less memory and runs faster on large TypeScript and other files Release Notes: v1.0.35 Bug Fixes: • Headless MCP status reporting and connecting reminders now match actual server handshake state. • MCP tool searches and calls now render with query, results, arguments and output on the daemon path. • Swift string interpolation with nested parentheses now highlights correctly in the TUI. • Copy-paste in --minimal mode no longer inserts extra blank lines or breaks long paths at wrap points. • /memory modal now shows copy confirmations, searches note contents, and works on narrow terminals. •

Grok Build just got persistent memory.....and now it gets better the more you use it It now remembers conventions, decisions and project facts across sessions.....so you don’t have to keep re-explaining the same context every time you come back Two new commands make it easy: • /memory → browse what Grok Build remembers • /dream → organize recent notes into useful topics The more you use Grok Build, the more context it carries forward with you

Grok Build just got a pretty substantial upgrade across MCP, memory, long-running sessions, and overall agent reliability MCP tools can now return structured JSON, cancelled tool calls actually tell the server to stop working, memory can be managed directly from the /memory browser, and long-running sessions keep their compaction checkpoints instead of losing them during cleanup There are also fixes for macOS image pasting, subagent cancellation states, /rewind, huge skill files flooding context, Windows cloning, and minimal-mode session handling A lot of edge cases cleaned up here...especially for people running heavy agent workflows for long periods Release Notes: v1.0.33 Features: • MCP tool results now include structured JSON data when the server provides it. • GROK_GROVE=1 now enables both clone and worktree features when specific knobs are unset; missing remote settings no longer force copy. • Delete memories from the /memory modal using two-press x; only actual notes (not generated indexes) can be

I literally use Grok Build to edit images and videos....not just generate them, which it can also do > I mean actual image and video editing....the kind of stuff you would normally sit in Photoshop or editing software and do manually > I can tell Grok Build what I want changed, have it find the right footage, cut clips, edit everything together and handle a lot of the repetitive work for me > You can even save your preferred designs and workflows as skills....so it knows exactly how you like things done every time > It saves me an insane amount of time

Grok Build just got another clean usability + performance upgrade The session header is now cleaner, long-running sessions are easier to track with proper hour-based timers, Watchers and Loops show exactly when they’ll run next, and workflow status is directly clickable from the dock tmux panes should also feel noticeably smoother thanks to a fix for per-frame rendering lag Release Notes: v1.0.30 Features: • Session header redesigned as a single row that carries the overlay context and a Dashboard button. Bug Fixes: • Elapsed-time display now rolls over into hours (for example 3h14m) instead of stopping at 60 minutes. • Dock Watchers and Loops rows now show when the next run is due. • Workflow status now shows a clickable row in the dock. Performance: • Fixed lag in tmux panes by omitting per-frame synchronized-update wrappers.
