FAQPage Schema

How do I adjust agent interaction frequency during a charter lifecycle?▼

You can adjust agent interaction frequency by switching between pacing modes. This modifies confirmation strategies to match your workflow and optimize efficiency during the charter lifecycle.

What is the difference between paired, solo, and autopilot pacing modes?▼

Pacing modes dictate confirmation frequency: paired requires frequent confirmation, solo reduces it, and autopilot minimizes interaction. Switching modes dynamically adjusts how the agent operates.

Do I need specific files to manage agent pacing modes?▼

Yes, managing pacing modes requires .charter/INDEX.json and .charter/corpus/state/MODE.md. These files manage the configuration and state required for mode switching.

How do I switch the current charter mode to autopilot?▼

You can switch the charter mode to autopilot by invoking the mode switching command. This dynamically adjusts the confirmation strategy to minimize agent interactions.

When should I change the pacing mode for my project?▼

Change the pacing mode when you need to personalize workflows or optimize efficiency. Switching modes adapts the agent's confirmation frequency to suit your working style.

Can I customize how often an agent confirms its actions?▼

Yes, you can customize confirmation frequency by selecting a pacing mode. The chosen mode dynamically adjusts how often the agent confirms its actions based on your preferences.
