Live verification (opencode 1.17.8 + grok-build-0.1, funded key) showed the Grok
runtime was loading INERT, three ways:
1. The provider override `provider.xai.npm=@ai-sdk/openai` failed model
resolution (ProviderModelNotFoundError) — opencode can't resolve that package
from its module path. Worse, ANY custom `provider.xai` block (even just
options) breaks plugin-tool registration. opencode's BUILT-IN xai provider
drives grok-build-0.1 with working tool-calls, so emit NO provider block; the
key + base reach it via XAI_API_KEY / XAI_BASE_URL env (provider.options.apiKey
alone does NOT authenticate).
2. Plugins referenced by absolute path in the config `plugin:` array never
registered their hooks/tools. opencode 1.17.8 only registers from the plugin
AUTO-DISCOVERY dir (~/.config/opencode/plugin/). Bake all plugins there.
3. Plugins must use a NAMED export, not `export default`.
Changes:
- opencode_config: no `provider` block, no `plugin` array; drop the dead
XaiTarget + timeout machinery; build_opencode_config now takes a model string.
- GrokProvider / orchestrator interactive env: inject XAI_API_KEY + XAI_BASE_URL
(drop the now-unused OPENAI_*).
- secret-scrub / budget-feed / secretary-tools / intake-tools: named exports;
baked into /home/agent/.config/opencode/plugin/ (drop the EXTRA_PLUGINS env).
- agent-grok* Dockerfiles: plugin dir + agent ownership; drop the unneeded
@ai-sdk/openai global install.
Verified live end-to-end: grok-build-0.1 calls read_company_state AND
submit_directive through secretary-tools.js and the backend receives both with
the agent token; a tool.execute.before guard fires; built-in tool-calls work.
Targeted gate green (ruff/mypy/xenon + opencode_config/providers/interactive
tests; node --check the plugins).
The keystone of the Grok parity work (CEO's "take Claude as baseline, create
what's missing" call): the one-shot Grok container now starts the same SDK
server the Claude path runs, so the per-verb circuit breaker (the flow/do MCP
servers already POST /verb/attempted to it), the per-session budget/loop
counters, the terminal-verb tracking, and the SessionEnd post-mortem all work
on Grok instead of being silently absent.
- entrypoint: launch roboco.agent_sdk.server (bare venv python, not `uv run`
which would re-sync the drifted clone lock and stall), wait for /health,
reset counters; run opencode WITHOUT exec so the script regains control to
run the post-mortem and the silent-exit substitute after the run returns.
- budget-feed.js: opencode plugin that gates on /budget/status in
tool.execute.before (halt/loop deny — the only place to stop a runaway
one-shot run; opencode has no PostToolUse-deny) and records the executed
tool + args-hash in tool.execute.after. Fail-open; bare-verb normalization
for MCP-namespaced terminal verbs.
- silent-exit substitute: on a graceful exit with no terminal verb the
entrypoint posts /terminal/force_substitute so the task isn't left stuck
claimed/in_progress (Stop-hook parity at the boundary).
- opencode_config: wire budget-feed into the plugin array; add
ROBOCO_OPENCODE_EXTRA_PLUGINS so per-image role tool plugins load scoped to
one role; read the per-role ROBOCO_GROK_EDIT_PERMISSION.
Targeted gate green (ruff/mypy/xenon + opencode_config tests; node --check on
the plugins; bash -n on the entrypoint).
