autopilot

autopilot is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from asysta-act/agent-flow. It costs 47 tokens per session (8,480 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

An unattended dispatcher for software issues and feature requests. It reads project automation settings, classifies the work, and sends each item to the matching workflow.

In plain words
What is it for?
Automatically finding issues from configured queries and dispatching bug fixes or feature work, including dry-run checks.
Why use it?
It helps run bug and feature handling in scheduled jobs, batch runs, or CI without a person directing every issue. A lock prevents two runs on the same host and filesystem from overlapping.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade C, and why

autopilot scanned grade C with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

The lock is a DIRECTORY `.agent-flow/autopilot.lock/` (NOT a file) — `mkdir` is atomic on POSIX and NTFS. A JSON file `owner.json` inside the directory records `{pid, hostname, acquired_at}`. The trap that releases the l

Autopilot

Headless dispatcher skill for unattended cron / batch / CI invocation. Reads ### Issue Tracker, ### Feature Workflow (optional) and ### Autopilot (optional) from ## Automation Config, classifies issues into bugs and features, enforces a portable mkdir-based lock, and dispatches agent-flow:fix-bugs or agent-flow:implement-feature per issue sequentially via the Skill tool.

Invoke typically as:

claude -p "Run /agent-flow:autopilot" --dangerously-skip-permissions

or, for safe inspection:

claude -p "Run /agent-flow:autopilot --dry-run" --dangerously-skip-permissions

Reference: docs/guides/autopilot.md for operator onboarding, exit-code matrix, and cron guidance.

Scope & Boundaries

  • Dispatcher only — this skill never itself modifies code, writes PRs, or runs tests. Those responsibilities belong to the child skills (fix-bugs, implement-feature).
  • Process-local lock.agent-flow/autopilot.lock/ guards ONE host / filesystem. Multi-host deployments MUST coordinate via DISJOINT Bug query / Feature query filters per host, or run Autopilot from exactly one host. The plugin emits an INFO line with the hostname on every successful lock acquisition (see Step 3) but does NOT automatically detect cross-host contention. See docs/guides/autopilot.md#single-host-operation.
  • Sequential dispatch — issues are dispatched one at a time. No per-issue parallelism at the Autopilot layer.
  • Top-level observability only — Autopilot itself fires NO per-iteration webhooks. Child skills fire their own pipeline-started / step-completed / pipeline-completed events per-issue.
  • Dry-run is a full short-circuitDry run: true means no lock, no state.json, no webhook, no dispatch.

Configuration

Follow ../../core/config-reader.md for parsing ## Automation Config from CLAUDE.md.

This skill consumes the following sections:

  • ### Issue Tracker (required): Type, Bug query, State transitions, On start set. The Bug query row is the required authoritative input; Feature query lives in ### Feature Workflow.
  • ### Feature Workflow (optional): Feature query, On start set. Absent section triggers a [WARN] and bug-only mode.
  • ### Autopilot (optional): 7 keys below. Absent section = all keys use defaults. Autopilot still runs using Bug query from ### Issue Tracker.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

autopilot is a skill published in the GitHub repository asysta-act/agent-flow (12 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 8,480 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (recursive force delete). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
