mark_k · x · 2026-08-16

Grok CLI released Build 1.0.5, focusing on quality-of-life improvements and bug fixes. Key updates include:

Configuration: New GROKCONFIG and GROKCONFIGPATH environment variables allow overriding settings without modifying config.toml.
Resource Management: Worktrees in /.grok/worktrees are now automatically reclaimed when safe, with safeguards to prevent data loss.
Performance: Limits on image and video generation calls per step to prevent overload.
UX Improvements: Correct reordering of Arabic and Persian text in terminal UI; early refresh and stability of session titles; /resume now shows a recap and last-turn summary; descriptive spinner labels.
Bug Fixes: Resolved issues with tool calls failing after /dev/null removal, incorrect home directory resolution for agent skills on Windows, and unclear MCP tool spinners.
