Opening the settings
Click the shield in the bottom row of the message box. Next to it is a short summary of what’s currently auto-approved, for example Read, Safe Commands, All, None or Off. Click it to open the menu.Actions
Enable auto-approve turns the whole feature on or off without losing your choices, and Toggle all switches every action at once. Star an action to keep it in your favourites for quick access.
New installs start with Read project files and Execute safe commands on.
Some low-risk actions never need approval, such as loading a skill, checking on or stopping a background agent, and waiting.
Max requests
By default there’s no limit: Sixth keeps working for as many requests as a task needs. If you’d like it to pause and check in, enter a number under Max Requests. Sixth stops after that many consecutive auto-approved requests and asks before continuing. Clear the field to go back to unlimited.Suggested setups
- Careful: read files only. You review every edit and command.
- Balanced: read files, edit project files and run safe commands. Checkpoints let you undo anything you don’t like.
- Hands-off: everything on, for prototyping or tasks you trust Sixth to run alone.
