rescue

rescue is a command for coding agents from zachdunn/grok-plugin-claude-code. It costs 18 tokens per session (317 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that sends a coding, debugging, or review task to the Grok command-line tool as a separate worker. It supports options such as read-only work, background execution, model choice, and a separate worktree.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to delegate implementation, debugging, research, or review tasks to Grok with the required execution options.
Why use it?
It lets developers hand off bounded work to another coding agent, including tasks that should not modify the current files.

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.

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 3d 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

Forward the user's request to Grok via the companion runtime. Treat this as a thin hand-off — do not solve the task yourself.

  1. Take everything in $ARGUMENTS as the task description, except recognized routing flags (--read, --background, --effort <level>, --model <id>, --cwd <path>, --best-of-n <N>, --check, --worktree, --resume), which pass straight through to the companion.
  2. If the user gave no routing flags, choose sensible defaults:
    • Write-capable by default. Add --read only if the user clearly wants review/diagnosis/research with no edits.
    • Foreground for a small, bounded task; --background if it looks long-running or open-ended.
  3. Run exactly one command:
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/grok-companion.mjs" task <flags> "<task description>"
  1. Return the companion's stdout as-is. Do not add your own analysis before or after it.

If the companion reports Grok is not installed or not signed in, tell the user to run /grok-cc:setup.

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.
