Grok Build v1.0.2 Released: Fixes Multi-Agent Scaling and Image Session Crashes
XFreeze · x · 2026-08-12
xAI's coding agent tool Grok Build has released version v1.0.2. This update focuses on improving long-session reliability, multi-agent scheduling, and fixing several edge cases.
Key Features & Optimizations:
- Agent Scheduling: Subagent spawning is now bounded to prevent exhausting file descriptors during wide fan-outs; UI-verification instructions are prioritized higher.
- Session & Context: Fixed an issue where large image-heavy sessions crashed by blowing past limits during compaction; /rewind now only truncates conversation history by default and asks for confirmation.
- Diagnostics & Tooling: Tools now report if they only read data; startup timeouts detail the slowest step and elapsed time; managed MCP servers are now exclusively available through the gateway catalog.
