Use Grok 4.7 as a coding agent in your terminal

Start Darce in your project with Grok 4.7:

npm install -g darce-cli
darce --model x-ai/grok-4.7

Already in a session? Type /model x-ai/grok-4.7, or open the picker with Ctrl+P. Darce then reads your code, edits files and runs commands with Grok 4.7; risky commands ask first, and /undo reverses any change, including what shell commands did. No account yet? npx darce-cli lets you try it free. Which plan includes which models is on the pricing page.

Make it your default or a gear

In ~/.darcerc, set it as the starting model or add it to the gears you move between with Shift+↑ / Shift+↓ (see configuration):

{
  "router": { "default": "x-ai/grok-4.7" },
  "gears": ["qwen/qwen3-coder", "x-ai/grok-4.7"]
}

Compare it on your own code

Benchmarks rarely match your repository. Race Grok 4.7 against two other models on a real task and keep the best diff:

/derby --models x-ai/grok-4.7,x-ai/grok-build-0.1,anthropic/claude-opus-5.5 fix the failing test
