yolo-mode

yolo-mode is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from dentiny/kon. It costs 49 tokens per session (919 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An autonomous operating mode for the kon command orchestrator, enabled with the --yolo flag. It accepts reasonable defaults, retries failures, and continues through some confirmation checkpoints without interrupting the user.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when handing a kon task to the orchestrator while you are away, especially for workflows with repeated confirmation steps or recoverable failures.
Why use it?
It removes pauses when a task can proceed safely with a clear default or an automatic retry. Human input is still required when the plan is ambiguous or a genuine judgment call is needed.

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 A, and why

yolo-mode scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 5d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

YOLO Mode

Owner: orchestrator Consumers: any /kon:* command when the --yolo flag is present

Core principles (always): follow skills/core-principles — YOLO does not waive first principles or simplicity; it only skips confirmation checkpoints.

The user set the task and stepped away. Run it. Don't interrupt them for anything that has a reasonable default or can be retried automatically.

What changes in YOLO mode

Normal checkpoint YOLO behavior
Wait for user to confirm Mugi's plan Still requiredwait-for-user --after plan
Pre-plan understanding gate (before Mugi) Still required — ask questions per skills/pre-plan-gate; do not spawn Mugi until ready
Wait after each milestone Mio-approved Still requiredwait-for-user --after milestone --milestone N
Auto-accept decisions within the plan Auto-accept all [**default**] decisions in Mugi's ## Decisions needed
Ask user when a plan step is ambiguous If plan has [**default**], use it; otherwise STOP and ask — never invent
Notify user when Mio blocks Auto-send must-fix list back to Yui; retry silently
Per-agent step summary to user Suppress — only report at the end (or when stopping)

Auto-accepted decisions and auto-retries are recorded in the session log (see skills/session-tracking) so the user can review what happened.

YOLO auto-accepts plan defaults and retries failures — it does not permit guessing unclear requirements. See skills/ask-dont-guess.

When to STOP and ask the user — always, even in YOLO mode

  1. Pre-plan gate — After Azusa (and debug notes if applicable), always run skills/pre-plan-gate before Mugi. YOLO does not skip understanding questions.

  2. Plan confirmation — After Mugi finishes, always wait-for-user --after plan before Yui. YOLO only auto-accepts decisions within the approved plan.

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.
