autopilot

autopilot is a skill for Claude Code from tokencanopy/e2a. It costs 74 tokens per session (1,947 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A local, always-on email agent that monitors one existing e2a inbox and acts on approved incoming messages. It is designed for bounded tasks such as customer support and can require human approval before sending email.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set up inbox monitoring, define support or custom tasks, allow approved senders, establish escalation rules, and route outbound messages through human review when needed.
Why use it?
It lets an agent respond to a controlled inbox while limiting who can trigger it, what it may do, and when a person must approve a reply.

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

autopilot 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 35 executable files (autopilot.mjs, autopilot.sh, config.mjs, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 204 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

e2a Autopilot

Autopilot turns one existing e2a inbox into an always-on local agent trigger. It uses the current e2a protection and CLI surfaces; it does not require or propose server, API, database, SDK, MCP, or core-CLI changes.

Use tether instead when the owner wants to steer an already-running interactive session by email. Use a cloud webhook instead when a stable public service should own the workflow. Autopilot is the local-machine daemon: e2a listen connects outbound, so the machine does not need a public endpoint.

Required conversational behavior

Conduct onboarding as a conversation. Ask one logical question at a time, reflect material answers, explain a tradeoff before asking for a risky opt-out, and skip facts the user already supplied. Do not paste the entire questionnaire.

The interview must establish:

  1. The task outcome. Offer the built-in customer-support starter or a custom task.
  2. For support: scope, exclusions, approved knowledge, escalation conditions, tone/signature, response expectations, and refund/billing/security/legal limits.
  3. An existing e2a inbox and its human owner.
  4. One inbound authorization mode: exact sender addresses or verified sender domains. The current protection gate cannot mix both modes on one inbox.
  5. Non-matching inbound mail goes to e2a human review. Do not offer a silent bypass or “any authenticated internet sender”; the current surface cannot express the latter safely.
  6. Outbound review, default on. Turning it off requires the warning and the exact acknowledgement requested by the interview.
  7. Owner CC on every reply, default on. Turning it off requires a warned acknowledgement.
  8. Prompt-injection screening, recommended and default on. Turning it off requires a warned acknowledgement.
  9. Claude Code, Codex, Hermes Agent, or a custom executable; its absolute path, workspace, and isolation mode. (OpenClaw is unavailable in this release: its invocation flags are unverified.) Hermes and custom executables require an acknowledged external isolation boundary because Autopilot cannot verify one for them. A built-in container runner is not implemented in this release; use an explicitly reviewed custom wrapper.
  10. launchd, systemd, or foreground operation.

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.
