Autopilot

What it does

Starts an autonomous build-until-done program (Mode L) from a plain-language brief. Before launching, it runs a clarity scorecard to verify the brief is well-specified, interviews the user to fill any gaps, previews the milestone plan, and asks for explicit approval. The loop then drives the full pipeline autonomously across multiple milestones until all acceptance criteria are met.

When to use it

Use this command when you have a complex multi-milestone brief that is ready to run autonomously. Mode L is never started implicitly — only this explicit command launches it, and only after the brief passes the clarity gate and you approve the plan.
