Release Notes
Grok Build 1.0.49
- Hook permission prompts appear in every approval mode
- Web searches, fetches, and image generation follow the prompt_policy setting and rule decisions before they prompt
- Allow once on a permission card applies only to the next shell command
- pkill -f and pgrep -f are rejected earlier when the pattern would kill their own shell wrapper
