Using uninterrupted mode
Uninterrupted mode lets Proto finish long jobs without stopping to ask you questions.
Turn it on or off
- Open Settings (⌘ , or
/settings). - Go to Permissions.
- Under Permission mode, switch Uninterrupted mode on or off.
- To keep approval prompts for the riskiest actions, turn on Always ask before sending, paying or saving records on the same page.

What changes
- Proto does not stop for confirmations or clarifying questions.
- Any structured question is answered automatically with its recommended first option.
- Approvals are given automatically, including deletions, payments and messages outside your organization. To keep being asked before sending, paying or saving records, turn on Always ask before sending, paying or saving records in Settings → Permissions.
- For long jobs, Proto sets a goal and keeps working until it’s done.
What does not change
Proto’s safety rules still apply. It will never cross the boundaries described in What Proto Will Never Do, even in this mode.
Note: To interrupt Proto in this mode, type /stop, ask it to stop, or use the stop control on the running task.
