Description

@inventumamet

Feature hasn't been suggested before.

  • I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.

Describe the enhancement you want to request

Right out Grok 4.2 works, but it doesn't have thinking mode turned on, so it is pretty much useless. Request to enable thinking mode and to tune it to use opencode better.

    so for example, if you use grok-code-fast-1 you can see the thinking, and it is verbose and it tries and tries.

    But if you use the 4.20 beta, whether it is reasoning or not, it will give very brief answers, and refuse to do any verbose work. It just gives the most bare minimal and concise answer, or do the bare minimal work, and stops running.

    Are you using the standard grok 4.2 or the multi-agent-beta? On the latter, the CoT is PGP encrypted which tends to break coding tools. Haven't tried the non-multi version, but being it's the same family it could be an issue as well with the singular version.
