Alpha briefly served 1.0.6: Shift+arrow prompt selection, optional status line, grok clone with a projected working tree, plus reliability fixes. Binaries were published at https://x.ai/cli/grok-1.0.6-*. Alpha now points at 1.0.10.

Grok Build is available on every plan, on the web and on mobile.

GROK_CONFIG and GROK_CONFIG_PATH let launchers override config without editing config.toml. Worktrees under ~/.grok/worktrees are reclaimed when safe.

Recurring /loop tasks show a 7-day expiry notice. Web search allow/exclude domains via [toolset.web_search]. GROK_SESSION_ID for tools and MCP. Follow-up Behavior setting, session search toggle, and many TUI/permission fixes.

Clickable /session-info rows, faster subagent spawning with many ~/.grok sessions, and TUI rendering matched to 120 Hz+ displays.

Grok Build switched to Grok 4.6 on launch day, with 2x included usage for the first week.

Clearer tool-call streaming labels, recovery from server-rejected images, actionable startup timeout messages, safer worktree copies of large repos, and Cmd+click autolink fixes in Apple Terminal.

/rewind truncates conversation only. grok du for disk usage. Failed channel updates suggest the matching GROK_CHANNEL reinstall. Native arm64 install on Apple Silicon even from a Rosetta shell. Video generation voices and aspect ratios.

1.0: dashboard turn summaries, extensions modal, auto theme over SSH/tmux, MCP image tools, cleaner API error banners, and a large set of TUI and permission-prompt fixes.

Build Mode Early Beta for SuperGrok Heavy on grok.com, iOS, and Android: describe an idea and Grok builds a working preview in chat, then publish it to a link.

Grok Build can write and run workflows: orchestration scripts that fan a task out across many agents.

Grok Build coding agent and TUI source is on GitHub; the harness can run local-first against your own inference.

On November 2, 2026, grok-imagine-image-quality is retired. Requests to that slug will be served by grok-imagine-image-2.0 with quality set to low, with no change to request or response shape and at a lower per-image price. grok-imagine-image (1.0) is not affected.

grok-imagine-image-2.0 quality accepts auto (default moved from medium to auto). Image editing accepts up to 5 reference images per request (was 3). Generation and editing accept 21:9 and 5:2 aspect ratios.

Generally available as Quality Mode on grok.com/imagine, iOS, and Android. API model grok-imagine-image-2.0.

Image and voice references, text-to-video, and native 1080p. API model grok-imagine-video-1.5.

Grok Voice Think Fast 2.0 announced as the next-generation speech-to-speech voice model.

Speech-to-text accepts vad_threshold as a streaming query param and batch multipart field. 0 disables the gate.

21 new multilingual flagship voices for Grok Voice, plus improved naturalness for the original five, in the Voice Agent API, TTS API, and Voice Agent Builder.

Voice Agent Builder beta: no-code production voice agents on Grok Voice, with telephony, tools, MCP, and observability.

500k context; $2 / $0.50 / $6 per 1M tokens below 200k prompt tokens, $4 / $1 / $12 above; reasoning low / medium / high / xhigh.

Cloud agents can run on self-hosted machines so codebase, build outputs, and secrets stay in your infrastructure. My Machines connects a personal laptop or VM; team pools are named queues that scale with demand and can hibernate idle workers. Integrations include AWS Lambda, Coder, Cloudflare, Daytona, Modal, Namespace, Vercel, and E2B. Self-hosted workers support computer use on Linux and Mac.

Cloud Agents can start without a connected GitHub or other SCM. Select Start from scratch in the repo picker; Cursor creates an Origin repo in the background. Create repo saves private or internal Origin repos. Live preview port-forwards the agent environment to the browser. Connect Vercel to publish a live URL.

Subscriptions, custom modes, subagents on isolated VMs, /goal, steering without interruption, and expanded conversation hooks.

Background-prepared environments (clone, install, install script). Fallback to last successful build. Builds tab for logs and SHAs.

Early beta on paid plans: repos, GitHub sync, pull requests, agents in every repo, and app extensions. Agent-native features still shipping.

X documented size and duration limits for media upload and POST /2/tweets, enforced separately. Limits follow the authenticated user's Premium/verified status and media_category, not the developer API plan. Default Post video caps are 20 minutes and 8 GB; Premium/verified up to 125 minutes and 16 GB. DM video limits unchanged. Exceeding the posting user's duration cap returns 403. The chunked upload quickstart now documents v2 paths (initialize, append, finalize) instead of the prior POST /2/media/upload flow.

X Ads API Analytics VIDEO metric video_total_views now counts views that are 100% in-view for at least 3 seconds, plus any view where a user clicks play. The prior MRC 50%-in-view-for-2s definition no longer applies; video_3s100pct_views and VIEW_3S_100PCT bidding remain.

Subscribe by user id for mute/unmute and block/unblock. Private events requiring user-context OAuth 2.0.

post.create and post.delete on the Activity API. For keyword filtering, continue to use Filtered Stream.

Optional direction filter on Activity API subscriptions. Event type naming moved off PascalCase.
