About

Grok Build is xAI's terminal-based AI coding agent, running as a full-screen TUI that understands a codebase, edits files, executes shell commands, searches the web, and manages long-running tasks. It supports interactive, headless (CI/scripting), and editor-embedded use via the Agent Client Protocol, with support for MCP servers, skills, plugins, hooks, and sandboxing.

Why it made the leaderboard

Grok Build gives you an open-source, Rust-based terminal coding agent tied to xAI's models that runs interactively, headlessly in CI, or embedded in editors via the Agent Client Protocol. If you want a Claude Code/Codex-style workflow without the OpenAI or Anthropic lock-in, this is the first-party option with MCP, skills, plugins, and hooks built in.
