Gronk v0.1.2
Pre-releaseIf you are on any earlier build, update. 0.1.0 and 0.1.1 both have an
unusable Light theme, and 0.1.0 also has an invisible activity heatmap.
Fixed
Light mode was unusable. Twenty-four elements were unreadable, several at a
contrast ratio of 1.03:1 — text the same colour as the surface behind it. The
cause was structural: 27 rules painted their own black background, so switching
theme flipped the palette and the text but left those surfaces dark. The accent
and the state colours were never overridden either. Now measured at zero
contrast failures across five views, with Dark verified unchanged.
The usage meter claimed you had spent money you had not. It read
"~$0.28 est." on every session. That figure is only a charge when you sign in
with an XAI_API_KEY, where it draws down prepaid credit. With a Grok account
nothing is billed per token — the same number is what those tokens would have
cost at API rates, against quota you already pay for. Dollars now appear only
when they are real; otherwise the panel labels it "At API rates". Token counts
are unchanged and shown either way.
Changed
The sidebar stays put. Choosing Build now lists your projects immediately,
instead of after you had already opened one. Switching projects no longer means
leaving the session you are in, so "Switch workspace" and "All" are gone.
One word for a project. "Folder" and "workspace" both meant the same thing as
"project" in different corners of the app. A project is a directory the agent
works in; a session is one conversation. "Open folder…" is now "+ Add
project", since every project you have is already listed.
Which file do I want?
| Platform | File |
|---|---|
| Windows | Gronk-0.1.2-windows-x64-setup.exe (installer) or -portable.exe (no install) |
| macOS | Gronk-0.1.2-macos-universal.dmg — works on Apple Silicon and Intel |
| Linux | Gronk-0.1.2-linux-x86_64.AppImage or Gronk-0.1.2-linux-amd64.deb |
Node.js is not required — the installer bundles its own runtime. You do need the
Grok CLI and your own Grok account.
These installers are unsigned
macOS will say the app is damaged. It is not. Right-click the app and choose
Open, then confirm — double-clicking will not work until you have done that
once. Windows SmartScreen: More info → Run anyway.
SHA256SUMS.txt verifies the download arrived intact. That checks integrity,
not authorship — only signing does that.
Known limitations
- Developed and tested on Windows. The macOS and Linux builds come from CI and
have not been run by the author. Reports welcome. - No automatic updates. Code signing has to land first.
- Conversations are stored on your machine as readable text, which is what
comparable tools do. Do not paste secrets into a chat.
