Grok Build 0.2.93

0.2.92→0.2.93·July 8, 2026 at 10:36 PM UTC

Patch release refining turn cancellation behavior, updating keyboard shortcut handling, and refreshing documentation.

Changelog

  • [changed] Canceling a running turn now requires Ctrl+C (which first clears a non-empty draft if present); Esc is a no-op while a turn is active and only retries cancellation once a turn is already cancelling.
  • [changed] Esc twice within 800 ms now opens the rewind picker from either the prompt or scrollback when the prompt is empty and messages exist; additional conditions prevent rewind when overlays, history search, or special composer modes are active.
  • [changed] Updated user guide sections on getting started, keyboard shortcuts, configuration, and theming to reflect the new Esc/Ctrl+C semantics and removed accent_best_of_n from the accent list.
  • [changed] Help skill now references updated runtime paths when reading configuration or docs.
  • [changed] Recent commands list now includes release-notes.

Under the hood

  • Refined RUST_LOG description for headless (-p) mode defaults.
  • Expanded session telemetry with additional inter-token latency fields (avgItlMeanMs, lastItlP50Ms, lastItlP99Ms, worstItlMaxMs) and doom_loop_recovery; removed best_of_n.
  • System prompt output guidelines updated to favor concise, high-quality technical prose in complete sentences.

Upgrade notes

Review the updated keyboard shortcuts table if you rely on Esc for cancellation or use Vim scrollback mode.
