‼️ BREAKING: xAI's Grok Build CLI was uploading entire Git repositories to a Google Cloud bucket, private codebases and unredacted secrets included. The uploads quietly stopped via a hidden server-side flag, and xAI still has not said a word about scope, retention, or deletion.
The scale is staggering. On a 12 GB test repo, 5.1 GB flew out the door to xAI's grok-code-session-traces bucket while the actual coding task needed just 192 KB. The tool grabbed whatever repository it ran in, not the files it needed.
The fix arrived as a hidden flag, disable_codebase_upload: true, a day after a researcher's wire-level analysis. The "Improve the model" opt-out never stopped the uploads.
Still no advisory, no scope, no word on whether already-uploaded code gets deleted. For anyone pointing AI coding agents at proprietary code, what crosses the wire matters more than what the settings page says.
Hot take:
Token limits are the worst part of AI coding tools.
Just found something that removes them entirely (@rig_code):
- Rig is a coding agent that runs 100% on your machine.
- No API calls.
- No usage caps.
- No telemetry.
- Your code never leaves your hardware.
If you're tired of token meters killing your flow mid-sprint - worth checking out.

Someone legit argued and called me clueless because he said that claude will be getting cheaper and cheaper because:
"AI will accelerate technology developments, thus making the infra cheaper"
Rig is so powerful, so disruptive, so terrifying, I’m proud we haven’t released it yet.
Our internal benchmarks tell us it’s the most powerful model ever. Imagine free AI for everyone. It has the potential to upend the entire economy.
We are accepting requests for access 😉
