With the prompt-injection guard now recreated for Grok (prior commit), the "Grok lacks the injection guard / prefer Claude for delivery roles" warning is no longer true, so remove it: - Panel routing card: replace the amber "prefer Claude / not safe" caveat with a neutral one-liner — Grok agents run on opencode; the command/secret-exfil guard, the prompt-injection guard, and the cost cap all apply. - docs/self/architecture/llm-provider-security.md: prompt-injection row flips to "yes" for Grok; intro + routing recommendation updated to "effective security parity, any agent (incl. delivery roles) can run on Grok"; the only remaining unported hook is the non-security stop-guard. - opencode_config docstring: the remaining gap is now just the stop-guard (budget + injection are covered). Panel tsc + eslint clean.

# LLM provider security posture
|
|
|
|
RoboCo routes each agent to one of several LLM providers (the **Routing** card in the control panel). This note states — truthfully — what protections an agent gets on each provider. The short version: **Grok now reaches effective security parity** — the command/secret-exfiltration guard, the budget/cost cap, and the prompt-injection guard all apply to Grok agents. The only Claude hook without an opencode equivalent is the stop-guard (terminal-verb enforcement), which is a workflow nicety, not a safety control. Any agent — including the delivery roles — can be routed to Grok.
|
|
|
|
## Two runtimes, not five
|
|
|
|
An agent has two layers: the **model** (the brain) and the **runtime** (the agent program that drives it — reads files, calls tools, loops). RoboCo's guardrails are implemented as **Claude Code hooks**, so they only exist when the runtime is Claude Code.
|
|
|
|
| Provider (routing mode) | Runtime | Model |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| Anthropic | Claude Code | Claude (opus/sonnet) |
|
|
| Ollama (Cloud) | Claude Code (via `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` injection) | the Ollama model |
|
|
| Self-Hosted | Claude Code (via `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` injection) | your endpoint's model |
|
|
| **Grok (xAI)** | **opencode** | **grok-build-0.1** |
|
|
|
|
Anthropic, Ollama, and Self-Hosted all run on **Claude Code** and therefore keep the **full guard set**. Only **Grok** runs on a different runtime — **opencode** — because the `claude` binary rejects any non-Claude model id, so Grok cannot run inside Claude Code. opencode is to Grok what Claude Code is to Claude.
|
|
|
|
## Guardrail parity matrix
|
|
|
|
| Guardrail | Claude Code runtime (Anthropic / Ollama / Self-Hosted) | Grok (opencode) |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| MCP gateway + role tool-manifest | yes | yes (mounted by construction) |
|
|
| Command / secret-exfiltration guard (bash, credential files, internal-host calls, PAT exfil) | yes (`bash-guard-hook.sh`, PreToolUse) | **yes** — ported to opencode as the `secret-scrub.js` plugin (`tool.execute.before`) |
|
|
| Budget / runaway-cost kill-switch | yes (`post-tool-budget` hook against the SDK server) | **yes** — orchestrator-side cost watchdog (`ROBOCO_GROK_MAX_COST_USD`) reading the opencode store |
|
|
| Prompt-injection guard (rejects "ignore previous instructions", role-override, fake escalations in incoming A2A / task / notification content) | yes (`user-prompt-hook.sh`, UserPromptSubmit, denies the turn) | **yes** — recreated at RoboCo's input boundary (`prompt_guard.detect_injection`): the interactive driver scans every turn, the one-shot grok entrypoint scans the task prompt. Same patterns as the bash hook, kept in sync. opencode's lack of a blocking pre-prompt hook is irrelevant — we deny in our own code before calling the model |
|
|
| Stop-guard (terminal-verb enforcement before a run ends) | yes (`stop-hook.sh`, Stop) | **no** — opencode's stop/idle hooks are observe-only (workflow nicety, not a security control) |
|
|
|
|
## The remaining gap: the stop-guard
|
|
|
|
Every *security-relevant* Claude guard now applies to Grok — command/secret-exfiltration (`secret-scrub.js`), budget/runaway-cost (orchestrator cost watchdog), and prompt-injection (`prompt_guard`, recreated at the input boundary). The one Claude hook without an opencode equivalent is the **stop-guard** (it enforces that an agent calls a terminal MCP verb before a run ends), because opencode's session-stop events are observe-only. This is a workflow-completion guard, not a safety control: a Grok agent that ends without a terminal verb is recovered by the orchestrator reaper / idle watchdog, not left in a dangerous state.
|
|
|
|
## What this means for routing
|
|
|
|
Grok is safe to route any agent to, **including the delivery roles** that ingest cross-agent / external content: the prompt-injection guard rejects a poisoned A2A message or task prompt before the model sees it (interactive turns in the driver, the one-shot task prompt in the entrypoint), and the secret-exfiltration guard blocks credential reads / internal-host calls. The only behavioural difference from a Claude-Code-runtime provider is the stop-guard noted above. So security parity is effectively reached; the remaining difference is non-security.
