A command that delegates an investigation, fix request, or follow-up task to a Grok rescue subagent. A subagent is a separate AI worker assigned a specific task.

Use it for debugging, explicit repair work, or follow-up work from an earlier Grok task. It can run in the foreground, in the background, or resume the latest related session.

It lets another worker investigate or address a problem while preserving the command’s execution and resume options.

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	$0.00020	$0.00922
Opus 5	$0.00010	$0.00461
Sonnet 5	$0.00004	$0.00184
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00092

Security

Grade A, and why

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 10d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

What it actually says

Invoke the grok:grok-rescue subagent via the Agent tool (subagent_type: "grok:grok-rescue"), forwarding the raw user request as the prompt. grok:grok-rescue is a subagent, not a skill. Do not call Skill(grok:grok-rescue) (no such skill) or Skill(grok:rescue) (that re-enters this command and hangs the session). The command runs inline so the Agent tool stays in scope; forked general-purpose subagents do not expose it. The final user-visible response must be Grok's output verbatim.

Raw user request: $ARGUMENTS

Execution mode:

If the request includes --background, run the grok:grok-rescue subagent in the background.
If the request includes --wait, run the grok:grok-rescue subagent in the foreground.
If neither flag is present, default to foreground.
--background and --wait are execution flags for Claude Code. Do not forward them to task, and do not treat them as part of the natural-language task text.
--model and --effort are runtime-selection flags. Preserve them for the forwarded task call, but do not treat them as part of the natural-language task text.
If the request includes --resume, do not ask whether to continue. The user already chose.
If the request includes --fresh, do not ask whether to continue. The user already chose.
Otherwise, before starting Grok, check for a resumable rescue session from this Claude session by running:

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/grok-companion.mjs" task-resume-candidate --json

If that helper reports available: true, use AskUserQuestion exactly once to ask whether to continue the current Grok session or start a new one.
The two choices must be:
- Continue current Grok session
- Start a new Grok session
If the user is clearly giving a follow-up instruction such as "continue", "keep going", "resume", "apply the top fix", or "dig deeper", put Continue current Grok session (Recommended) first.
Otherwise put Start a new Grok session (Recommended) first.
If the user chooses continue, add --resume before routing to the subagent.
If the user chooses a new session, add --fresh before routing to the subagent.
If the helper reports available: false, do not ask. Route normally.

Operating rules:

The subagent is a thin forwarder only. It should use one Bash call to invoke node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/grok-companion.mjs" task ... and return that command's stdout as-is.
Return the Grok companion stdout verbatim to the user.
Do not paraphrase, summarize, rewrite, or add commentary before or after it.
Do not ask the subagent to inspect files, monitor progress, poll /grok:status, fetch /grok:result, call /grok:cancel, summarize output, or do follow-up work of its own.
Leave --effort unset unless the user explicitly asks for a specific reasoning effort.
Leave the model unset unless the user explicitly asks for one. Pass concrete model ids such as grok-4.6 or grok-4.5 through with --model.
Leave --resume and --fresh in the forwarded request. The subagent handles that routing when it builds the task command.
If the helper reports that Grok is missing or unauthenticated, stop and tell the user to run /grok:setup.
If the user did not supply a request, ask what Grok should investigate or fix.
