Human-in-the-Loop Agent Task Management for Claude Code
YOLO Mode

Move Fast.
Trust Your Agent.
Auto-Approve.

YOLO Mode allows you to temporarily disable manual tool call authorization for specific, trusted tasks. The agent executes tool calls as fast as the LLM allows — no manual approvals, no interruptions.

Uninterrupted Velocity

Human-in-the-loop is great for safety, but can be a bottleneck for repetitive tasks like large-scale refactoring or running test suites. YOLO Mode lets you step back once you've reviewed the first few steps.

  • Auto-allow all tool calls for a single task thread.
  • Status persists across agent disconnects/reconnects.
  • Enabled per-task, ensuring fine-grained trust control.

Safety Warning

YOLO Mode removes human oversight for the active task. Only enable it if you trust the agent's instructions and have proper version control (git) to rollback changes.
