Snap the prompt to the top when you send in Grok Build

Snap the prompt to the top when you send in Grok Build

page_flip_on_send under [ui] controls whether the TUI jumps the just-sent prompt to the top of the viewport when you hit Enter. Official: Settings reference. Default is on.

Config

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

[ui]
page_flip_on_send = true

Turn the snap off if you want the scroll position to stay put after send:

[ui]
page_flip_on_send = false

When each setting helps

Leave true when you want every new turn to start at a clean top-of-viewport. Set false when you are reading older scrollback while queuing follow-ups and the jump throws you off.

Pitfalls

  • Putting page_flip_on_send in project .grok/config.toml — user config only.
  • Confusing this with multiline send keys (Shift+Enter / Ctrl+M) — those change how you type newlines, not viewport snap after send.
