Agent mode

Set via agentMode in preferences. Two modes:

Read (default)

The agent analyzes and notifies but never modifies anything outside the cofounder tables. Allowed action types:
  • slack_summary — Slack messages
  • webhook_post — outbound webhook events
  • notion_page — Notion DB rows
Blocked action types:
  • asc_metadata_update, asc_review_reply, asc_version_create — App Store Connect writes
  • linear_issue, github_issue — issue tracker writes
This is the safe default. Use it when onboarding or whenever you want zero risk of unintended side effects.

Write

All action types are allowed, but each one still requires either:
  • Being in autoApproveTypes → executes immediately
  • Or human approval via the API or Slack approval buttons
The example above means: the agent can propose any action, replies to user reviews are auto-applied, everything else waits for your approval.

Analysis depth

Set via analysisDepth in preferences. Controls how much investigation the agent does per run — not which model runs (that’s your LLM settings). * Actual cost depends on your chosen model and how much data the collector pulled. With default models, a standard run is on the order of a cent.

When to use each

  • quick — frequent runs to catch fast-moving signals (rank drops, review spikes). The data delta between runs is small, so a shallow pass is enough.
  • standard — default twice-daily runs. Research phase plus a self-critique pass over the draft briefing.
  • deep — weekly retros, decision-heavy moments (pre-launch, post-pivot). The bigger tool budget lets the agent chain multiple keyword/competitor drills before writing.

Per-run override

You can override the depth on a one-off run without changing your default:
Useful for “I want a deep weekly retro right now” without flipping your default schedule.

Auto-approve

autoApproveTypes is an array of action types that bypass the review queue and execute immediately when proposed.
Generally avoid auto-approving:
  • asc_metadata_update — irreversible without a review cycle
  • asc_version_create — can affect your app’s store listing
