This lab is tuned for Grok 4.6 as the primary pair-programming intelligence on Grok Build 1.0.5+ (stable).
See also: GROK-BUILD-1.0.md for binary/profile upgrade steps.
| Area | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Reasoning | Multi-step refactors, debugging, and architecture OK — still present results in small steps |
| Output | Mobile-scannable; short paragraphs; paste-ready commands |
| Tools | Grok Build CLI + optional Aider on the same xAI key |
| Secrets | ~/.grok/secrets.env only |
| Display | Termux:X11 (nh-x11) when a desktop helps; shell is enough for most pairs |

One-shot fix
In main.py, fix the off-by-one in parse_args. Show a minimal diff only.
Plan then implement
Plan a subcommand CLI for tools/ (list, run, doctor). Then implement step 1 only.
Review
Review this diff for security and edge cases. Bullet risks; no rewrite unless critical.

Catalog default remains grok-4.6 via the NetHunter profile (grokhunter ensure /
bash scripts/install_grok_profile.sh). Former V9 /model pickers (chat-expert,
multi, auto, grok-v9, …) are retired — clean leftovers with:
