Grok Build ships v1.0.35/36: live background task output, org hooks policy, MCP fixes

XFreeze · x · 2026-09-18

XFreeze summarized two rapid Grok Build releases (v1.0.35 and v1.0.36):

Background work visibility: background shell commands now render as live task rows with streaming output; a new dashboard preview toggle can hide the session preview panel.
Org controls: a new policy setting lets organizations disable hooks not from managed sources.
Reliability fixes: sandbox folder trust, pinned agents, MCP plugin auth, and background subagent approval requests that previously failed silently are all addressed.
Performance: syntax highlighting uses far less memory and runs faster on large files; /memory gets content search, copy confirmations, and narrow-terminal support.
