SpaceXAI’s Grok Build AI coding tool was spotted uploading users’ entire codebases to Google Cloud before it was reported, and the company turned it off. The Register<\/em><\/a> reports that Cereblab<\/a> published findings on Monday showing how the Grok Build CLI was packaging and uploading entire code repositories, \u00ab\u00a0including files it was told not to open and secrets deleted from history,\u00a0\u00bb significantly more data retention than similar tools like Claude Code.<\/p>\n

The researchers say that as of Monday, their tests show SpaceXAI’s servers returning a \u00ab\u00a0disable_codebase_upload: true\u00a0\u00bb flag, and the codebase upload \u00ab\u00a0no longer fires.\u00a0\u00bb <\/p>\n
