Grok Build now operates within your project files. Full read and write plus all new files end up in the project. Big improvement for enterprise workflow creation. You can simply type "work within my project folder called "Folder Name" or type in terminal.
cd /folder path/grok_project_folder grok
Many users praise Grok Build gaining full read/write access to project folders because it delivers a major productivity boost with less friction for end-to-end AI-assisted development.
@jon It's great so far... so many things just work out of the gate or have been added in a matter of days. Is Grok Build building itself?
@dowell_tom70 @jon @elonmusk I've stopped manually puttering with such stuff. Spin up opencode with gpt-5.5 and tell it what you want. (Presumably any frontier model will do.)
@jon 1.5t soon?

@jon That’s a solid upgrade for anyone tired of copy-pasting between chat and codebase. Full read/write inside the project changes the workflow entirely. Just don’t accidentally let it refactor everything at 2 AM.
@jon @elonmusk @grok Realistically using an enterprise format how large of a data sheet can Grok Build handle? What if its over 1 million lines by 300 lines? Will it be able to handle it or will it use tokens and crash? Compare to Claude Opus 4.8 and decide which once I should be using
@jon @elonmusk Moving from a "code assistant" to an "autonomous AI agent" working within your local files is the real leap; AI now understands the entire project context.
@jon @elonmusk @grok answer this for me
@jon @elonmusk Just try @grok and build

@jon @elonmusk I spent an hour and a half trying to authenticate Grok build on my Linux VPS last night. I’ve been a systems engineer for 30 years and threw in the towel after 1.5 hours. I did everything grok said and nothing. You really need to fix it before you tout it!
@jon finally someone gets it and actually kills the terminal clutter with one ai that owns your whole folder
@jon Do we have an eta to the composer data/grok 5 rollout? I kind of struggle with 4.3 compared to other models
@jon @elonmusk
@jon @elonmusk Is there a folder for this?
@jon Nice. Such a solid productivity boost for managing projects end-to-end.
@jon @elonmusk Elon is doing great 👍🥰
@jon 'big improvement for enterprise' well not if it's not available in vertexAI in EU (our big company uses only models deployed here) so please distribute it here as well
@jon @elonmusk Direct file-level integration like this is a big step toward smoother AI-assisted dev environments. Less friction, more building.
