AI Productivity

Grok as a Built-In AI Agent

Launch Grok (xAI) as a first-class AI agent in 1DevTool, with the same prompt handling, session resume, and orchestration as Claude, Codex, and the rest. Grok terminals behave like every other agent instead of a plain shell you paste commands into.

Grok as a Built-In AI Agent

Why You Need This

How this feature boosts your daily productivity

Trying a new coding agent usually means opening a bare terminal, pasting a command from a README, and giving up prompt handling, quota tracking, and orchestration in the process. Making Grok a built-in agent lets you evaluate it on equal footing with Claude and Codex — resume its sessions, hand work to it, and let it delegate back — without treating it as a second-class terminal.

How It Works

Get started in 4 simple steps

1
1

Launch Grok

Pick Grok from the empty-workspace launcher or the Add Terminal dialog; it sits in the AI Coding Agents grid next to Claude, Codex, and Antigravity.

2
2

Prompt it like any agent

Grok terminals use the same AI prompt handling, headless prompt mode, and sub-agent detection as every other supported agent.

3

Resume earlier conversations

Reopen past Grok sessions from Resume AI Sessions, complete with titles, previews, project folders, branches, and activity times.

Delegate across agents

Hand work to Grok through orchestration, or let Grok act as the host that delegates to other AI coding tools.

Without 1DevTool

The manual way vs. the 1DevTool way

The Hard Way

# Open a plain shell
# Paste the grok command from a README
# No prompt handling
# No session resume
# No way to delegate to or from it

The 1DevTool Way

Launch Grok from the agent launcher.
Prompt handling, resume, and orchestration included.
Delegate to it and watch the sub-agent badges.
