Context Mentions | Kilo Code Docs

Context mentions are a powerful way to provide Kilo Code with specific information about your project, allowing it to perform tasks more accurately and efficiently. You can use mentions to refer to files, folders, problems, and Git commits. Context mentions start with the @ symbol.

Grok's First Vibe-Coding Agent Has a High 'Dishonesty Rate' | PCMag Added: Aug 29, 2025

Grok's First Vibe-Coding Agent Has a High 'Dishonesty Rate'

Site: PCMAG

Elon Musk's xAI markets Grok-code-fast-1 as a 'speedy and economical' alternative, but the fine print tells a different story. It's available now to try for free.

<hr><p><em>Don't miss out on our latest stories. <a href="https://www.google.com/preferences/source?q=pcmag.com" target="_blank" title="(Opens in a new tab)">Add PCMag</a></em><em> as a preferred source on Google.</em></p><hr><p>Elon Musk's xAI released its first <a href="https://www.pcmag.com/explainers/what-is-agentic-ai" target="_self">agentic</a> coding model, which claims to be "speedy and economical. " However, it also has "a higher dishonesty rate" than the company's flagship chatbot model, Grok 4. </p><p>The AI startup designed the new model, grok-code-fast-1, specifically for coding tasks. It's free now for a limited time and accessible within GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Cline, Roo Code, Kilo Code, opencode, and Windsurf. "Grok-code-fast-1 has mastered the use of common tools like grep, terminal, and file editing, and thus should feel right at home in your favorite IDE," xAI <a href="https://x.ai/news/grok-code-fast-1" target="_blank" title="(Opens in a new tab)">says</a>. </p><p>But its propensity not to tell the truth could create problems for users. "We find that the dishonesty rate exceeds that of Grok 4," <a href="https://data.x.ai/2025-08-26-grok-code-fast-1-model-card.pdf" target="_blank" title="(Opens in a new tab)">says</a> the model card. The company attributes this in part to its "safety training, which teaches the model to answer all queries that do not express [a] clear intent to engage in specified prohibited activities." </p><p>Translation: if it doesn't know the answer to your question, it might lie.</p><p>If programmers ask the model if a certain part of the codebase is working, and it doesn't know, it may say "yes," when, in fact, the opposite is true. It might also confirm that it completed a test the engineer asked it to do when it did not. This could create blind spots and double work.</p><div class="ziff-component relative m-auto my-12 border-b border-t border-black bg-white py-4 md:my-16 md:p-6 md:px-4" role="region" aria-label="Newsletter Sign-Up" x-data="window.newsletters()" x-init="initNewsletter({"id":1,"list_id":17768392,"status":"Published","title":"What's New Now","deck":"Your daily dose of the best new products, the latest tech news, and expert advice from the editors of PCMag.","slug":"whats-new-now","courier_list":"Whats New Now","image":{"path":"newsletters\/17768392.jpg","metadata":{"altText":"whats new now","attribution":"unknown"}},"preview_link":"https:\/\/secure.campaigner.com\/csb\/Public\/show\/g6xi-2w64h8--191g70-juom6cn6","contextual_title":"Your Daily Dose of Our Top Tech News","contextual_tagline":null,"contextual_image":{"path":"newsletters\/17768392-contextual.png","metadata":{"altText":"What's New Now Newsletter Image","attribution":"Credit: PCMag"}},"contextual_deck":"Sign up for our What's New Now newsletter to receive the latest news, best new products, and expert advice from the editors of PCMag.","contextual_body":[],"first_published_at":"2021-09-30T21:30:40.000000Z","published_at":"2025-07-18T01:20:50.000000Z","last_published_at":"2025-07-15T21:13:26.000000Z","created_at":null,"updated_at":"2025-07-18T01:20:50.000000Z"})" x-show="showEmailSignUp()" x-intersect.once="window.trackGAImpressionEvents("pcmag-on-site-newsletter-block", "What's New Now", $el)">  <img class="opacity-20 absolute right-0 top-0 z-0 hidden md:block" src="https://www.pcmag.com/images/newsletter-envelope.svg" alt="Newsletter Icon" style="max-width:220px; max-height:140px; pointer-events:none;">  <div class="absolute right-0 top-0 h-[134px] w-[134px] overflow-hidden md:hidden"> <img class="opacity-20 h-full w-full" src="https://www.pcmag.com/images/newsletter-envelope.svg" alt="Newsletter Icon"> </div>

"Soot Planets" Might Be More Common Than "Water Worlds" - Universe Today Added: Aug 29, 2025

"Soot Planets" Might Be More Common Than "Water Worlds"

Site: Universe Today

According to astronomers, water worlds, though admittedly not those containing Kevin Costner, are one of the most common types of planets in our solar system. This is partly due to low density estimates and the abundance of water ice past the “snow line” orbit of a star. But a new paper led by Jie Li and their colleagues at the University of Michigan, suggests there might be an alternative type of planet that fits the density data but is made up of a completely different type of material - soot.
The bright yellow worm that turns ocean poison into golden survival crystals | ScienceDaily Added: Aug 29, 2025

The bright yellow worm that turns ocean poison into golden survival crystals

Site: ScienceDaily

Deep beneath the Pacific Ocean, a bright yellow worm thrives where no other animals dare, in toxic hydrothermal vents saturated with arsenic and sulfide. By cleverly turning these poisons into a golden mineral once prized by Renaissance painters, the worm neutralizes the deadly threat and survives in one of Earth’s most hostile habitats. Scientists say this unusual “fighting poison with poison” strategy could change how we think about life’s resilience in extreme environments.
