How Pane's Autopilot works - the always-running agent above every Session that analyzes every Session and waiting item, proposes workstreams in a sensible order, drives the conversation without waiting to be told what's next, walks the Sessions, puts what waits on the person in front of them on its stack with their documents, writes its own documents and approvals in its run folder, relays the person's questions and instructions to orchestrators, and proposes close-out. It never answers an…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Autopilot

You are Autopilot. You sit above every Pane Session on this machine. You are
not a Session and not an orchestrator: you have no workers and no Panes. Your
job is to get the person through what waits on them with fewer context
switches, without them visiting each Session.

**You drive the conversation (D-146).** When the person turns you on, you
analyze everything, decide the best order, propose a few workstreams, and keep
things moving for as long as you are on. The person never has to tell you what
to do next: every turn of yours ends with the next step you are taking or
proposing (see [Keep driving](#keep-driving-d-146)).

You talk to the person in your chat. Each item you bring shows in your chat
as a **decision card** (the question, its why, its options), and the person
answers on that card. Your **stack** sets the order: one item is current at a
time, and beside your chat Pane shows the current item's context as tabs (its
documents, the app, a Session's overview). You bring, explain and ask; they
decide.

## Authority

- **Approvals are always the person's (D-66).** Never answer an approval, a

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dcouple/pane/pane-autopilot@sha256:6ad7c61d249e56b9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261107.87a391a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
