SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill lets teams control how much autonomy an agent has versus human oversight by providing five explicit interaction modes, runtime mode switching, and approval checkpointing to prevent unsafe or undesired actions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Five interaction modes: autonomous, supervised, collaborative, consultative, and interrogative to cover background automation, supervised deployments, live collaboration, advisory scenarios, and debugging.
  • Runtime mode management: enable .withInteraction(), switch modes via InteractionManager, and scope mode changes per agent ID.
  • Approval checkpoints & kill switch integration: pause/resume via checkpoint tools and kill switch for human approvals before irreversible actions (file writes, API calls).
  • Use case: Deploy a supervised agent that checkpoints plans before performing file writes so an operator can review and resume execution.

Quick Start

Enable the interaction layer on your agent and set the initial mode to supervised so the agent pauses for approval before irreversible actions.

Frequently Asked Questions about interaction-autonomy

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I configure agent approval checkpoints for human oversight?▼

You can add a human approval checkpoint by enabling .withInteraction() on your agent and using checkpoint tools to pause execution, requiring an operator to review and resume before irreversible actions like file writes occur.

What interaction modes are available for managing agent autonomy?▼

Five interaction modes manage agent autonomy: autonomous for background automation, supervised for deployments, collaborative for live work, consultative for advisory roles, and interrogative for debugging.

Can I switch agent interaction modes at runtime in TypeScript?▼

Yes, you can switch agent interaction modes at runtime by calling the InteractionManager API, which allows you to dynamically scope mode changes per agent ID during live execution.

How do I add a kill switch to pause and resume agent execution?▼

You add a kill switch by integrating the interaction layer's pause and resume controls, which halt agent execution to enforce human approval before high-risk tooling or irreversible actions proceed.

Does this agent autonomy control work with Reactive Agents TypeScript projects?▼

Yes, this interaction autonomy control is explicitly designed to apply to Reactive Agents TypeScript projects, supporting supervised deployments, collaborative UIs, runtime escalation, and high-risk tooling management.
