# Verification Report: Grok 4 Integration
**Spec:** `2026-01-11-grok-4-integration`
**Date:** 2026-01-11
**Verifier:** implementation-verifier
**Status:** Passed
---
## Executive Summary
The Grok 4 Integration feature has been successfully implemented and verified. All 16 tasks across 5 task groups are complete, all 670 tests pass with no regressions, and the build succeeds. The implementation adds xAI's Grok 4 model as an alternative option in the search tool with proper type system updates, schema validation, and searchType metadata to distinguish realtime web search from training-data knowledge.

### Incomplete or Issues
None - all tasks verified complete.

## 2. Documentation Verification
**Status:** Issues Found
### Implementation Documentation
The `/Users/awallis/dev/nexus-mcp/agent-os/specs/2026-01-11-grok-4-integration/implementation/` folder is empty. No implementation reports were created during the implementation phase.
### Verification Documentation
- [x] Final Verification Report: `verifications/final-verification.md` (this document)
### Missing Documentation
- Implementation reports for each task group were not created
**Note:** While implementation documentation is missing, the implementation itself is complete and verified through code inspection and passing tests.
---
## 3. Roadmap Updates
**Status:** Updated
### Updated Roadmap Items
- [x] Grok 4 Integration - Add xAI's Grok 4 model as alternative option with searchType metadata distinguishing realtime web search (Perplexity) from training-data knowledge (Grok 4). See `agent-os/specs/2026-01-11-grok-4-integration/`. `M`
### Notes
Updated `/Users/awallis/dev/nexus-mcp/agent-os/product/roadmap.md` to mark the Grok 4 Integration feature as complete.

## 4. Test Suite Results
**Status:** All Passing
### Test Summary
- **Total Tests:** 670 (648 unit + 22 integration, plus 1 skipped)
- **Passing:** 670
- **Failing:** 0
- **Skipped:** 1
### Failed Tests
None - all tests passing.
### Notes
- The test suite includes specific Grok 4 integration tests:
- `/Users/awallis/dev/nexus-mcp/tests/unit/tools/search-grok4.test.ts` (5 tests)
- `/Users/awallis/dev/nexus-mcp/tests/unit/server/mcp-grok4.test.ts` (3 tests)
- `/Users/awallis/dev/nexus-mcp/tests/integration/search-grok4.test.ts` (4 tests)
- No references to deprecated `PerplexityModelId` or `PERPLEXITY_MODELS` names remain in the codebase
- 80% coverage threshold is maintained

## 5. Build Verification
**Status:** Passed
The build completed successfully with no errors:
```
> nexus-mcp@3.1.0 build
> npm-run-all build:clean build:compile build:validate build:cli-setup
Build validation - checking dist structure
- cli.d.ts, cli.js
- clients, config, constants, errors
- index.d.ts, index.js
- schemas, tools, types, utils
```

## 6. Implementation Summary
### Files Modified
| File | Changes |
| ------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `/Users/awallis/dev/nexus-mcp/src/types/openrouter.ts` | Renamed `PerplexityModelId` to `ModelId`, added `'x-ai/grok-4'` |
| `/Users/awallis/dev/nexus-mcp/src/constants/models.ts` | Renamed `PERPLEXITY_MODELS` to `MODELS`, added Grok 4 config, added `SearchType` and `MODEL_SEARCH_TYPES` |
| `/Users/awallis/dev/nexus-mcp/src/schemas/search.ts` | Updated imports to use `MODELS` |
| `/Users/awallis/dev/nexus-mcp/src/tools/search.ts` | Updated type imports, added `searchType` to response metadata |
| `/Users/awallis/dev/nexus-mcp/src/index.ts` | Updated tool description and model enum to include Grok 4, added `searchType` to output |
### Key Implementation Details
1. **Type System**: `ModelId` type now includes `'x-ai/grok-4'` alongside all Perplexity model identifiers
2. **Configuration**: Grok 4 has 60s timeout (same as sonar-pro) and premium cost tier
3. **Search Type Metadata**: New `searchType` field distinguishes `'realtime'` (Perplexity) from `'training-data'` (Grok 4)
4. **Backwards Compatibility**: Default model remains `'sonar'` for existing users
