Quit the Grok Build TUI
Quit the Grok Build TUI
/quit (alias /exit) leaves the interactive Build application. Official: Modes and Commands.
Exit the TUI
In a session, run either form:
/quit
/exit
The process ends. Session history stays on disk under ~/.grok/sessions/ for later /resume or grok -c — see Manage sessions in Grok Build.
Quit vs navigate away
| Action | Command | Keeps the process? |
|---|---|---|
| Welcome screen | /home |
Yes |
| New empty session | /new / /clear |
Yes |
| Sign out only | /logout |
Yes (credentials cleared) |
| Leave the app | /quit / /exit |
No |
Sign-out how-to: Sign out of Grok Build.
Headless note
One-shot grok -p "..." already exits when the turn finishes. /quit is for the interactive TUI.
Pitfalls
- Quitting does not roll back uncommitted file edits the agent already wrote. Commit or stash first if you need a clean tree.
- Background tasks and subagents stop with the process. Check
/tasksbefore you quit if a long job is still running — see Use Grok Build background tasks.
