## Design analysis

This shows the desktop version of Grok for the week of 2026-11-02, before scrolling. A menu on the left takes up about a fifth of the screen width. A large question at the top asks what to explore. The message box in the middle is the largest item on the screen. Most text stands out enough from the background to meet a common accessibility guideline. One small label in the left menu is fainter than a common accessibility guideline recommends. The hint text in the message box says to type a slash to use commands. There is no note that it can make mistakes. The hint text in the message box differs from the week of 2026-10-26.

## Menu items

- In the side menu: an icon button (magnifier icon), an icon button (panel icon), Chat, Imagine, Library, Automations, an icon button (plus icon), Plugins
- In the bar across the top: Private
- In the message box: a model picker

## Menu changes
