Grok Build 1.0.0 just dropped.
And it’s a pretty big cleanup of the stuff that actually matters when you live inside an AI coding agent all day.
Biggest upgrades:
> Better agent visibility - dashboard now summarizes what the agent did on the previous turn
> Safer execution - permission prompts show the complete script before it runs, including expandable long bash commands
> Cancel actually means cancel - Esc/stop prevents background tasks from quietly restarting the model
> Better subagent workflows - queued prompts stay visible while agents are working, and queued slash/image messages can be reordered
> MCP multimodal fixes - tools returning images no longer drop or corrupt large screenshots
> Large sessions got much lighter - forking huge conversations no longer eats many times the session file size in memory
> Large repos restore properly - fixes hangs on big or shallow Git repositories
> More resilient during outages - Grok retries more server errors, and API failures show clean banners instead of raw JSON
> Plan / Agent / Ask modes behave better - model picker and command palette work while reviewing plans, and modes stay synced after resume
> Terminal UX got polished - better SSH/tmux theme detection, markdown tables reflow on narrow panes, cleaner keyboard behavior
Basically: fewer agent paper cuts, better reliability, and more confidence letting Grok run longer coding tasks.
Huge quality-of-life update.
