# xAI: Grok 4.20

> Gateway-focused migration notes for Grok 4.20, including reasoning toggle and multi-agent effort controls.

# xAI: Grok 4.20

Use this guide when you are moving traffic onto Grok 4.20 through the AI Stats Gateway.

Primary route in our catalog:

* `x-ai/grok-4-20-2026-02-17`

Optional multi-agent route exposed by provider model ID:

* `x-ai/grok-4.20-multi-agent-beta-0309`

## Migration requirement

For most integrations, there is no required migration work beyond updating the model ID and re-running your normal validation set.

Existing request and response patterns can remain the same.

## What changed

For the base Grok 4.20 route, there is no behavior change you need to migrate for in AI Stats Gateway.

The only practical change is how to tune the multi-agent variant.

For AI Stats Gateway usage:

* base Grok 4.20 can still be toggled with `reasoning.enabled` as normal
* multi-agent Grok 4.20 should be tuned with `reasoning.effort`
* use `low`, `medium`, `high`, and `extra high`
* as described in xAI guidance, `low` and `medium` map to 4 agents, while `high` and `extra high` use higher multi-agent configurations

We do not use `agent_count` directly in gateway requests.

### Base Grok 4.20 with reasoning toggle

Use the base model and set `reasoning.enabled` directly:

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "x-ai/grok-4-20-2026-02-17",
  "input": "Explain this architecture",
  "reasoning": {
    "enabled": true
  }
}
```

### Multi-agent Grok 4.20 with effort control

Use the multi-agent model and control depth with `reasoning.effort`:

```json theme={null}
{
  "model": "x-ai/grok-4.20-multi-agent-beta-0309",
  "input": "Evaluate three rollout options with tradeoffs",
  "reasoning": {
    "effort": "medium"
  }
}
```

Reasoning effort tiers:

* `low`
* `medium`
* `high`
* `extra high`
