Agent mode
Give it a task. It plans the steps, shows them to you, and does them, asking before anything important.

feature-agent-modeHow it works
- 1
Describe the task
Say what you want done, in your own words.
- 2

Agent mode breaks the task into steps and shows each one.
- 3
Approve what matters
Anything that sends, spends, deletes or pays waits for your approval.
Things you can do
- Research a topic across many steps.
- Plan a trip or a project with a checklist.
- Work on a coding task across several files.
Where it stands Live
Agent mode does not act on its own without you. That is by design. The list of tools it can use is still growing.
Questions
Will it act without asking me?
No. Anything that sends, spends, deletes or pays waits for your approval.
Can I see what it is doing?
Yes. The steps are visible, so you can follow along.
What kinds of tasks is it good for?
Tasks with several steps: research, planning, and coding across files.
