What xAI's Grok Build CLI Actually Sends to xAI: A Wire-Level Analysis

By @cereblab — Independent AI Safety Checker. Reproduce it yourself: github.com/cereblab/grok-build-exfil-repro

A measured, reproducible teardown. Findings are backed by captured artifacts (endpoint, HTTP method, status code, byte size, host) and repro commands; where an observation was seen live but not retained as a file, §7 says so explicitly. Section 8 is an evidence appendix with SHA-256s and a "what we did not prove" list. All captures are of my own traffic on my own machine, using a throwaway repository containing fake "canary" secrets — no real credentials were exposed.

Workflow Orchestration

1. Plan Node Default

• Enter plan mode for ANY non-trivial task (3+ steps or architectural decisions)
• If something goes sideways, STOP and re-plan immediately - don't keep pushing
• Use plan mode for verification steps, not just building
• Write detailed specs upfront to reduce ambiguity

2. Subagent Strategy

• Use subagents liberally to keep main context window clean

👁️ Give Claude Eyes — watch any video frame-by-frame

Freebie for the EYES keyword (reel-47, "Give Claude eyes"). Deliver as a public GitHub Gist — numbered steps the user can run today, not a raw link. Value-first: by the end you have a Claude Code skill that sees a video (every cut, every on-screen detail), not just reads its transcript.

---

Why this exists

Claude has no native video model. So every "analyze this video" tool just pulls the transcript — and

Embedding Library Search Paths into Binaries with GCC on Linux

It's possible to embed absolute paths for shared libraries into ELF executables (or shared objects) using dynamic tags such as DT_RPATH or DT_RUNPATH. The GNU ld linker (invoked by gcc or g++) supports several methods to achieve this.

1. Embedding Absolute Paths at Link Time

g++ main.cpp -o app \
    -Wl,-rpath,/opt/mylibs           # Writes /opt/mylibs into DT_RPATH

A lot of this code is pretty confusing
Why? Because I suck at this kind of programming! Woo!
Hey, at least it runs. Maybe I'll port it to Iceball.
I completely regret my decision in making this.
Note: There might be some broken stuff. Haven't been able to test this that much.
