Use your Grok subscription in Kilo Code

Kilo Code users can now log in with their X Premium+ or SuperGrok subscription to access Grok models directly within the platform, eliminating the need for a separate API key. The integration includes the new Grok Build 0.1 model, designed for complex, autonomous software engineering with a 256K context window and no text output limits. This move allows developers to leverage frontier-level AI coding capabilities at a lower cost, reinforcing xAI’s position against rivals like Anthropic and OpenAI.

Login with your X Premium+ or SuperGrok subscription to supercharge your workflows

Starting today, you can use your Grok subscription directly inside Kilo Code. Take advantage of your X Premium+ or SuperGrok subscription to get more bang for the buck without ever leaving Kilo.

Kilo Code users have consistently turned to xAI’s models, which have established themselves as leaders for agentic development due to their high performance and cost-efficiency in complex, long-running coding sessions.

This commitment to fueling agentic engineering is a core part of xAI’s history in the AI coding space, ensuring their models are continuously positioned as top contenders against rivals like Anthropic and OpenAI. As an open-source and model-agnostic platform, Kilo Code believes developers should always have the freedom to choose the best tool for the job, and xAI models consistently rank among the most credit-efficient and capable models in Kilo for essential engineering workflows.

The quiet arrival of the latest model, Grok Build 0.1, reinforces xAI’s leadership, specifically targeting complex, autonomous software engineering workflows. Grok Build 0.1 is engineered as an “architect” capable of reasoning through problems, writing code, and fixing its own mistakes in continuous loops. Designed for interactive coding agents and multi-step development, it features a 256K context window, accepts text and images, and boasts no text output limits, making it highly economically viable for aggressive agentic loops.

Early website experiments demonstrated its speed and capability, such as building a professional-level landing page in just 40 seconds, and we’re finding users truly delighted by the speed and intelligence of this new model in production. Grok is offering frontier-level functionality without the high price tag, so letting users bring their Grok subscriptions into Kilo was a no brainer.

How it works

Setup is super easy. With your X Premium or SuperGrok subscription, connect your Grok account to use the latest Grok models — including Grok Build for agentic coding — inside Kilo Code with no separate API key.

Kilo Code offers IDE extensions, a CLI, and a web surface. To connect your xAI account, follow the instructions in our docs:
