Release Notes
Grok Build 1.0.54
- /resume takes an optional session id or title and opens the picker filtered to matching sessions
- Pasted Windows line endings reach the model as newlines, markdown images no longer show a stray "!", and dollar amounts that are not math stay plain text
- Write approval cards show a binary or unreadable file as unreadable instead of garbled text
- Prompts you send while a session is resuming at startup are queued and sent once it loads instead of staying in the composer
- A corrupt session list no longer stops new sessions from registering: grok keeps a backup, salvages the rows it can read, and warns you
- Wrapped URLs in shell command descriptions link to the full address on every row
- Worktree forks (grok -w -r or /fork into a worktree) run in and show the worktree path, so a shell command no longer edits the original checkout
- Links are clickable in herdr panes
- Memory search shows the matching part of a long line instead of cutting it off before the match
- /memory skips a symlinked note instead of failing the whole listing
- Startup is faster when TMUX names a tmux server that has stopped
- Failed MCP tool rows wrap the error to the screen width and keep its line breaks
- [skills].ignore matches a symlinked SKILL.md by the folder that holds it
- Failed file reads expand to show why they failed
- Send now (Ctrl+Enter) on a slash command runs or queues it as a command instead of sending it as a prompt
- The idle welcome screen uses less CPU
- Typing in a prompt that holds large pastes is faster, and prompt undo history is capped so deleted pastes no longer stay in memory
- Long sessions use less memory after long replies scroll off screen
