Standing Claude Code ultracode for Grok Build CLI.
Grok already has the runtime: deterministic workflow scripts via the workflow
tool and /workflows
. This plugin is the missing /effort ultracode
layer — on every substantive task the agent authors a workflow and launches it, instead of orchestrating turn by turn.
Not affiliated with xAI or Anthropic. Claude Code already has this natively; do not install this plugin there.
Plugin (skill + /ultracode
):
grok plugin install malakhov-dmitrii/grok-ultracode --trust
Enable it in /plugins
if it stays off (Grok plugins start disabled). Then install the standing rule — plugins cannot write ~/.grok/rules/
:
git clone https://github.com/malakhov-dmitrii/grok-ultracode.git
cd grok-ultracode
./scripts/install-rule.sh
No-plugin path (skill + rule into user dirs):
./scripts/install.sh
Requires a Grok Build that ships ~/.grok/bundled/skills/create-workflow/SKILL.md
(the workflow dialect). Too-old builds will not run authored scripts.
New Grok session:
/ultracode
Reply should be ULTRACODE ON
. After that, bugfixes, reviews, migrations, and research become workflows. Watch /workflows
. Stop with /ultracode off
.
One-shot, no standing mode:
ultracode: audit src/routes for missing auth
or use a workflow to …
.
- Not a Grok harness patch. No native
/effort ultracode
flag exists; this is a skill + optional home rule. - Not
ultrawork
/ralph
. Those still use the model as orchestrator. Ultracode puts the loop in a script. - Not cheap. Default run cap is 24 agents (medium). Skip status questions and one-file answers; those stay in the conversation.
skills/ultracode/SKILL.md # standing protocol + author/launch loop
rules/ultracode.md # always-loaded opt-in pointer (copy to ~/.grok/rules)

.grok-plugin/ # marketplace index + manifest
Dialect and host API live in Grok Build itself (create-workflow
bundled skill). This repo does not vendor that file.
