🚀 AutoPilot AI — Your Friendly Smart Coding Assistant

For Visual Studio Code & Google Antigravity IDE

🧸 What is AutoPilot AI? (Explained so simple, even a 7-year-old gets it!)

Imagine you are building an amazing Lego castle on your computer.

Every single minute, a little popup box appears on your screen asking:

"Are you sure you want to add this block? Click YES!"
"Do you want to accept these color changes? Click ACCEPT!"
"Do you want to run this safe command? Click OK!"

Clicking "Yes", "OK", and "Accept" hundreds of times a day is boring and makes your fingers tired! 🥱

AutoPilot AI is your smart, friendly robot helper living right inside your code editor. 🤖✨

Whenever a safe popup or code change review appears, AutoPilot AI smiles, inspects it with its smart magnifying glass, and clicks the recommended "Yes" or "Accept all" button for you in the blink of an eye!

Now you can just sit back, relax, build cool projects, and let your robot friend do all the repetitive clicking!

🗺️ Guided Tour of the 10 Cool Screens

Inside the sidebar, you have 10 awesome screens to explore. Here is what each one does:

1. 📊 Dashboard (Mission Control)

Think of this as your video game scoreboard! It shows:

• How many buttons the robot clicked for you today.
• How many code files were approved.
• A neat little activity graph showing how hard your robot has been working.

2. ⚡ AutoPilot Live (The Cockpit)

This is where you drive the robot:

• Big Start, Pause, and Stop buttons.
• A live view of what editor window the robot is watching.
• A rolling ticker that shows every action in real time.

3. 🤖 Automation Agent (The Robot Brain)

Peek inside the robot’s mind:

• See its Confidence Meter (e.g., "I am 98% sure this is the right button to click!").
• Change your safety thresholds.
• Check which window it is looking at.

4. 🛡️ Safety Rules (The Rulebook)

This is where the robot keeps its strict safety rules:

• Pre-made safety filters that block dangerous computer commands.
• You can turn specific rules on or off with a single switch.

5. 💬 Prompt Inspector (The Magnifying Glass)

Whenever a popup appears on your screen, this tool takes an X-ray picture of it:

• Shows the exact text of the question.
• Shows all candidate buttons (like Yes, No, Cancel, Apply).
• Explains why the robot decided to click the recommended one!

6. ⏱️ Execution Monitor (The Flight Recorder)

Like a flight recorder on a real airplane:

• Shows every step of a running workflow.
• Shows how many seconds each step took.
• Shows green checkmarks for successes or red alerts if something needs attention.

7. 🧱 Workflow Builder (Lego Blocks for Tasks!)

You can build your own custom automations using easy building blocks:

• Block 1: Wait for a popup.
• Block 2: Click the "Accept all" button.
• Block 3: Run a test command.
• You can connect them together just like Lego bricks!

8. 📚 Workflow Library (The Recipe Book)

Don't want to build a workflow from scratch?

• Pick from pre-made recipes like "Continuous Safe Approval" or "Multi-File Review".
• Click "Run" and it works right out of the box!

9. 📜 Logs & Diagnostics (The Diary)

A neat, organized diary that writes down everything that happened with timestamps:

• Any sensitive secrets (like passwords or private keys) are automatically blacked out ([REDACTED]) so your secrets stay 100% safe!

10. ⚙️ Settings (Preferences)

Customize your robot to your liking:

• Change default speed.
• Toggle sound and banner alerts.
• Choose whether the robot wakes up automatically whenever you open your editor.

🛡️ Safety Shield: Why AutoPilot AI is 100% Safe

Your computer and your code are precious. That is why AutoPilot AI has built-in SafetyGuard Ironclad Armor:

1. 🚫 Dangerous Buttons are Permanently Locked Out: The robot is physically programmed to NEVER click buttons like:

   • Delete
   • Reject
   • Discard changes
   • Don't Save
   • Cancel Those buttons are strictly reserved for human fingers only!

2. 🧼 Harmful Command Blocker: If any command tries to run something scary like rm -rf / or format c:, the SafetyGuard blocks it instantly before it can touch your computer.

3. 🙈 Secret Redactor: If you work with passwords, API keys, or tokens, the robot automatically blurs them out in all logs so nobody can ever peek at them.

4. 🏠 100% Private (No Cloud Spying): Everything stays right on your own machine. AutoPilot AI never uploads your code, your prompts, or your data to any remote server or third party.
