How do I control what the agent can change?
Pick a mode from the chat's message box: Ask for approval, Approve for me or Full access.
- Open AI conversations.
- Open the … menu beside the message box and choose Mode. On the Ask page, click the mode button beside the message box instead.
- Pick Ask for approval, Approve for me or Full access.
- Raising the mode asks you to confirm. Click Allow.
- In Ask for approval, each read or edit waits as a card in the chat. Click Approve or Deny.
Shortcut: none
Other ways
- On a waiting card, click Edit before approving to change an edit first, or Allow reads in this chat to let later reads through.
Good to know
- Approve for me lets reads and edits run on their own. Full access also opens web pages without asking.
- Every edit is listed under Chat options › Changes. Click Revert, or Revert all, to undo.
- The mode applies to the whole library on this Mac. Lowering it never asks.
- Outside Full access, Terra asks each time before the assistant opens a web page.
