Grok Build CLI just got an update with v1.0.49! 🚀 Changelog v1.0.49 Bug Fixes: • Hook permission prompts now appear regardless of approval mode. • Web searches, fetches, and image generation now correctly respect the prompt_policy setting and rule decisions before prompting. • Allow once in permission cards now applies only to the next shell command instead of the whole session. • pkill -f and pgrep -f commands are now rejected earlier when the pattern would kill their own shell wrapper.
Grok Build CLI just got an update with v1.0.48! 🚀 Changelog v1.0.48 Bug Fixes: • `/rewind` now only lists prompts you typed yourself and skips automatic runtime turns. • Custom model tables in config.toml now preserve the original model's notice banner. • `read_file`, `search_replace`, and `grep` now handle large files, special files, and binary content more reliably and surface better errors. • Ask rules for WebSearch and WebFetch now correctly show a prompt instead of auto-running. • Cancelling one tool call no longer kills commands started by other parallel calls. • Authentication recovery no longer automatically retries refused prompts after login; the sign-in block now requires manual resend.

I was never a fan of watermarking content but I might just start doing it in a subtle way (:

Your Grok Build is probably not on the latest. Right now: • stable v1.0.46 — weekly default (often a few versions behind) • alpha v1.0.49 — early builds Alpha is 3 patches ahead of stable right now. Want the newest? Switch to alpha: grok update --alpha Back to weekly: grok update --stable Check without installing: grok update --check Force re-download: grok update --force-reinstall

We took down our first Xpass post after being told it was wrong. After several confirmations, most of it holds up. The tiers, how each one is built and the prices are real. Usage (4x / 15x / 50x) is still unconfirmed. We'll update this thread if anything changes.

A note for everyone asking about their current plans (Heavy, Premium+, Cursor, team plans): Nothing we've seen covers how existing subs move over, including the free Cursor Ultra that came with Heavy. Until there are migration details, I'd wait before changing, cancelling or upgrading anything. We'll post here when we know more 🫡

It is still running at 8-12 t/s 💀
Global reset landing tomorrow 10am PST for all paid ChatGPT accounts. Apologies for the slow start with GPT-6.1 Sol, it's now back to running at expected speeds after the massive load spike in the first two days.

Now you can add Grok to your 𝕏 group chat. Ask in-thread. Demo: flight boards at 7, friends argue 5 vs 6, Grok says leave at 5:20 (101 + Terminal 2 security). Also: - catch everyone up on what they missed - set reminders for the whole group - make images and videos on demand @Grok as another seat in the chat.
Your group chat just got smarter Get answers to your questions directly in XChat by asking Grok

Grok Build CLI just got an update with v1.0.46! 🚀 Changelog v1.0.46 Performance: • list_dir on network or virtual filesystems now skips slow subtree counts and prints a notice instead. • Session startup is faster when loading skills from large directories and shows what it is doing instead of a generic spinner. Bug Fixes: • MCP server sources are now correctly reported by `grok inspect` and the MCP doctor. • Tool search activity now correctly folds as "Ran N tool searches" instead of claiming MCP tool results. • Client rules supplied at session start are now preserved when the system prompt is rebuilt later. • Permission rules with relative paths now correctly apply even when the cwd contains symlinks. • Context compacted line now shows the correct token count immediately after compaction instead of at the end of a long turn. • Enter on video cards no longer attempts playback in terminals that cannot show it or lack ffmpeg. • Video cards now open the file in the default player on Enter in terminals without inline playback support, and no longer get stuck trying to extract posters without ffmpeg.

Bug Fixes: • Subagent wait status now correctly shows "Waiting for N subagents…" when the parent turn is blocked.
