As the company has explained on its website, Grok Build allows execute complex tasks with plan modewhich makes it easy to comment on individual steps or rewrite the plan entirely before execution begins. Likewise, once the plan is approved, it will carry out the task indicating each step.

Likewise, Grok Build works using the users’ AGENTS.md files, as well as their plugins, skills and MCP servers that work without additional configuration, simply by launching Grok Build in the users repository.

On the other hand, xAI has explained that, for “larger” tasks, Grok Build deploys tasks to specialized subagents that work in parallel. Likewise, it also has a graphical interface mode that allows you to easily run agents within ‘scripts’ and automations.
