v1.0.4

1.0.4 — 2026-08-13

Features

• New StopCancelled hook event now reports when a turn ends without completing (interrupt, permission reject, max turns, etc.).
• Recurring /loop tasks now show a one-line expiry notice in the transcript when they auto-expire after 7 days.
• Web search can now be restricted to allowed or excluded domains via [toolset.web_search] in config.toml.
• Session search index can now be disabled via GROK_SESSION_SEARCH or [features] session_search for hosts sharing $GROK_HOME.
• Drag to select and copy values on the /session-info tab; c and y shortcuts also work.
• Double-click now selects a word by default and triple-click selects the whole paragraph.
• New follow-up behavior setting lets queued messages send immediately as interjections instead of waiting for the turn to finish.
• Tool commands and MCP servers now receive a GROK_SESSION_ID environment variable matching the current session.
• Relative markdown links can now open existing files in your current working directory when no matching generated media is found.
• PreToolUse hooks can now rewrite a tool's input before it runs instead of only allowing or denying the call.

Bug Fixes

• Queued messages no longer auto-submit while you are still editing them in the composer.
• Sessions poisoned by rejected images are now healed permanently so future turns succeed without retrying the bad image.
• Auto permission mode now correctly honors your explicit "always allow" grants and narrow allow rules from settings.
• Subagent lifecycle events are now preserved even when delivered out of order, ensuring all subagents appear correctly in the UI.
• Keystrokes typed while Grok is starting are now preserved in the composer instead of being lost.
• Background tasks killed from the UI now correctly wake the model when needed instead of staying parked after a single-task stop.
• [stop] / Ctrl+C inside a fullscreen subagent overlay now cancels the visible child session.
• Hook failures now show the first line of stderr output instead of only the exit code.
• Pasting text or dragging images while the scrollback pane is focused now focuses the composer and pastes there.
• [stop] / Ctrl+C inside a subagent drill-in view now stops the focused subagent instead of the root session.
• The dashboard shortcut now works with Ctrl+4 in terminals that do not support the Kitty keyboard protocol.
• Pasting image-only screenshots from tools like Flameshot now works on Linux without a clipboard error.
• Editing a queued prompt to a slash command like /btw now runs the command instead of sending the text to the model.
• Text typed while a plan is being generated is now preserved when the approval screen appears.
• grok du and worktree commands now work on Windows when only USERPROFILE is set.
• Permission-mode changes made on the welcome screen now correctly apply to the newly created session.

Performance

• Finished subagent transcripts are now evicted from memory to reduce RAM usage and rebuilt from disk when reopened.
