This update is all about making audio processing smarter and keeping your software installations safe and stable. If you use the Grok CLI (a command-line tool that lets you talk to Grok using text commands) to handle Telegram voice messages, or if you just want to make sure you are always downloading the most stable version of the app, this release has some great behind-the-scenes improvements for you.

What's new

  • Smarter Telegram Audio Transcription: The tool now uses Grok's own Speech-to-Text (STT) technology to transcribe Telegram voice messages, replacing an older, external tool called whisper.cpp. This means converting voice to text should now be more seamless and better integrated into the Grok ecosystem.

Improvements

  • Smart Installation Warnings: The installer will now warn you if it is about to automatically download a "pre-release" (a beta or test version) instead of the final, stable version. This helps you avoid accidentally installing unfinished software.

Fixes

  • Clearer Labels for Test Versions: "Release Candidates" (which are basically test-drive versions of the software before the official launch) are now properly labeled as "prereleases" on GitHub. This fixes an issue where these test versions could be confused with final, stable releases.

Breaking changes
