Auto Mode

[ SLANG ][ AI CODING ][ MACHINE CULTURE ]

FORCE: Machine CultureUNIVERSE: Vibe CodingCLUSTER: coding_workflow

An operating mode where a coding agent proceeds through a task making changes without pausing for approval at each step, the opposite end of the spectrum from Plan Mode's stop-and-review approach.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"Trusted the task enough to run it in auto mode, went and got coffee, came back to it done."

LORE & ORIGIN

Standard mode option in coding-agent tools, marking the tradeoff between speed (letting the agent run uninterrupted) and control (reviewing each step before it happens).
