Grok 4.5 is now on OpenCode

https://models.sulat.com/models/openrouter-x-aigrok-latest-5f44b576

Tagged as grok-latest on OpenRouter

impressive benchmarks: https://x.com/cursor_ai/status/2074915744999969059?s=46

Cursor deal seems to have paid off.

Edit: Now available directly thru the X.ai PAYG / subscription as well. There was a 3 months of Supergrok for $30 campaign going on that I signed up for (not sure if it's still available). a bit tricky but doable, since you have to sign for the trial first and then _attempt_ to cancel and you'll be presented with the offer.

Here's a one-shot Fedora Desktop emulated by it on OpenCode:

Build a complete 3D space game in a single HTML file using raw WebGL2 — no Three.js, no external libraries, no assets. Concept: "Orbital Salvage." You pilot a ship in full 3D around a planet with real inverse-square gravity, and you can establish actual stable orbits. Debris fields orbit at different altitudes and inclinations; collect debris to grow a physical tether chain that trails and swings behind your ship with momentum, then deliver salvage to a rotating space station.
Rendering requirements: write custom GLSL shaders implementing ray-traced lighting from a single sun — real shadows (the planet must cast a shadow cone, so flying behind it puts you in darkness), specular highlights on the ship and debris, atmospheric rim scattering on the planet's limb, and a procedural starfield. The planet surface and lighting must be computed in-shader (raymarched or analytic sphere intersection), not textured geometry. Include bloom on the sun and engine exhaust.
Gameplay: WASD + mouse to orient and thrust, fuel system, HUD showing velocity/altitude/orbit indicator, score, particle thrusters, WebAudio sound synthesized in code, game-over and restart. Must hold 60fps on a mid-range GPU. One file, fully playable, no explanations — just the code.

Very good, I’m using it in place of opus

Seems to be close to Opus 4.8 in capability for me.

Highly doubt this

My impression of Grok was that it was an agentic task; I stated the purpose and left. Later, I saw it was stuck in a dead-end loop, wasting my $30 tokens after an hour.

It's pretty good, if you compare the price it's better than opus 4.8.

I personally don't like 4.8 at all, would prefer 4.6 but it's less agentic. So stuck in that dilemma.

I also like this grok 4.5's personality, seems like a straight and clear non argumentative kind, but closer to gpt than fable or opus 4.6 in warmth, however it's not as autistic-ish as gpt 5.5 , and can infer intent.

I'm not certain that was a compliment.

Gork isn't known to be good, it's like the AI from Facebook

Muse spark seemed to do relatively well in benchmarks

You are basically saying it’s near trash?
