Inject .envrc into bash in Grok Build

load_envrc under [session] controls whether Build injects variables from a project .envrc into bash tool runs. Default is true. Official: Settings reference.

Config

User config (~/.grok/config.toml or $GROK_HOME/config.toml):

[session]
load_envrc = true

Turn injection off when bash must see only the process environment you already exported:

[session]
load_envrc = false

What it does

With load_envrc = true, bash tool calls pick up variables declared in the project's .envrc the same way a direnv-style workflow would for that shell. With false, those file-backed exports stay out of the tool environment.

Auto-compact threshold lives in the same [session] table: Set auto-compact threshold. Broader env vars for the CLI process: Set Grok Build environment variables.

Pitfalls

• Putting [session] in project .grok/config.toml — user config only (project TOML is limited to [mcp_servers], [plugins], and [permission]).
• Expecting load_envrc to source arbitrary shell scripts — it targets .envrc variable injection into bash, not a general source of every dotenv flavor.
