2026-10-13-grok-build-late-on-october-13-build-1-0-56-appeared-and-winget-added-stable-1-0

Late on October 13, build 1.0.56 appeared and WinGet added stable 1.0.52. The full-day inventory is 16 builds, 1.0.41 through 1.0.56. WinGet no longer stops at 1.0.50 in the repository. Neither a generic minor-fixes note nor non-stable availability establishes a security fix or alpha-pointer value.

Channel: tagged-release (WinGet stable 1.0.52 manifest); preview-or-beta (available non-stable 1.0.56, pointer promotion unobserved). Half: capability. Date: 2026-10-13.

Operator consequence: Windows users can check for the merged xAI.GrokBuild 1.0.52 package and verify the version their client offers; repository merge is not proof of propagation to every client index. Keep stable 1.0.52 as the recommendation. Do not bring October 14 builds 1.0.57/1.0.58 into this dated posture.
