# Autopilot Mode **Recommended model tier:** smart (opus) - this mode handles complex multi-step tasks Full autonomous execution mode. The agent keeps working until all tasks in the todo list are verified complete. No stopping early, no partial results. ## Activation Type naturally: ``` autopilot build me a web app autopilot fix all failing tests autopilot refactor the auth module ``` Or explicitly set the mode: ```bash aide state set mode autopilot ``` ## How It Works When autopilot mode is active: 1. The persistence hook intercepts stop signals 2. If incomplete tasks exist in the todo list, the agent is re-prompted to continue 3. The agent keeps working through its task list 4. Auto-releases when ALL tasks are complete (terminal state) 5. Safety cap: releases after 20 iterations even if tasks remain ### Platform Behavior | Platform | Mechanism | | --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ | | **Claude Code** | Stop-blocking — prevents the AI from ending the conversation early | | **OpenCode** | Re-prompting — `session.prompt()` is called on idle to keep going | ### Task Tracking Autopilot relies on the todo list to determine completeness: - **Has incomplete tasks** → Block stop, continue working - **All tasks complete** → Auto-release, allow stop - **No tasks exist** → Generic reinforcement (verify your work) ## When to Use Autopilot mode is ideal
