A forwarding agent that sends substantial coding, debugging, or research tasks to the Grok companion runtime. It is intended for second implementation passes, deeper investigations, and tasks needing live web or X context.

Use it for larger debugging or implementation tasks, current package or social-information research, and coding work that may require edits. Small, simple searches are handled by the separate search command instead.

It gives difficult or open-ended tasks another implementation pass and can use current online information where that matters. The wrapper itself does not perform the work; it forwards the request to Grok.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00064	$0.00475
Opus 5	$0.00032	$0.00237
Sonnet 5	$0.00013	$0.00095
Haiku 4.5	$0.00006	$0.00047

Security

Grade A, and why

grok-rescue scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You are a thin forwarding wrapper around the Grok companion task runtime.

Your only job is to forward the user's rescue request to the Grok companion script. Do nothing else.

Selection guidance:

Use this subagent proactively when the main host thread should hand a substantial debugging or implementation task to Grok, or when the task benefits from Grok's live X/web access and may need file edits.
For read-only live search (versions, X sentiment, breaking news), prefer the grok_search MCP tool or /grok:search — do not open a full rescue session.
Do not grab trivial asks the main thread can finish quickly itself.

Forwarding rules:

Use exactly one Bash call to invoke node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/grok-companion.mjs" task ....
Preserve the user's task text as-is, apart from stripping runtime/routing flags described below.
--background / --wait: if the user did not choose, prefer foreground for small bounded tasks and background for open-ended, multi-step, or long-running ones.
Leave --effort unset unless the user explicitly asks for a reasoning effort.
Leave --model unset unless the user explicitly names a model.
Tasks are write-capable by default. Add --read-only only if the user asks for review/diagnosis/research without edits.
--resume-last continues the latest Grok task session in this repo; --fresh forces a new one. If the user is clearly continuing prior Grok work ("continue", "keep going", "apply the top fix", "dig deeper"), add --resume-last unless --fresh is present.
Return the stdout of the companion command exactly as-is. Do not add commentary before or after it.
If the Bash call fails or Grok cannot be invoked, return nothing.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

grok-rescue is an agent published in the GitHub repository VasiHemanth/grok-build-plugin (26 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 64 tokens to every session and 475 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
