Grok Build Src 8a14c91d8887

afbc0fb71032→8a14c91d8887·August 8, 2026 at 11:04 PM UTC

Tree sync afbc0fb71032 → 8a14c91d8887: cleaner non-interactive agent framing, safer /delete teardown, and a configurable hard exit timeout when quit hangs.

Changelog

  • [changed] Non-interactive sessions tell the agent there is no human operator in the session
  • [changed] /delete stops any running turn, background tasks, and subagents before wiping session history
  • [new] GROK_EXIT_TIMEOUT_SECS — seconds to wait after quit before force-exit if teardown hangs (default 20; 0 disables; a hard exit follows 5s later)
  • [changed] grok mcp enable / disable no longer treat legacy managed grok_com_* names as known without a local entry

Agent & tools

  • System prompt template: non-interactive branch now states there is no human operator in the session (interactive wording unchanged)
  • /delete: teardown of in-flight work is part of the documented delete path, not only history wipe and navigation back to welcome/dashboard

Docs

  • User guide /delete: documents stop of running turn, background tasks, and subagents before history wipe
  • Configuration: documents GROK_EXIT_TIMEOUT_SECS
  • MCP servers: enable/disable “known names” list drops legacy managed grok_com_* (no local entry required)

Under the hood

  • Exit-timeout path in the pager app and harness tests so hung teardown cannot leave the process stuck indefinitely
  • Session load barrier and session storage replay support
  • Skill discovery path-suggestion helpers
  • MCP doctor isolation test coverage
  • Memory-trace signal topology / wait helpers for diagnostics
  • Dependency churn: socket2 in lockfile; [email protected] dropped

Upgrade notes

  • If quit sometimes hangs in your environment, set GROK_EXIT_TIMEOUT_SECS (default 20) or 0 to disable the force-exit path; see the configuration guide
  • Callers that relied on grok mcp enable / disable accepting bare legacy grok_com_* names without a local definition may need an explicit config entry or another discovery source
