Autonomous Mode

Autonomous mode lets Ukkin work independently, making decisions and taking actions without requiring your constant input.

What is Autonomous Mode?

When enabled, Ukkin can:

  • Interpret high-level objectives
  • Plan and execute multi-step tasks
  • Make decisions based on context
  • Learn from outcomes
  • Adapt strategies over time

Enabling Autonomous Mode

From Chat Interface

  1. Tap the Autonomous toggle in the chat header
  2. Confirm you understand the capabilities
  3. Mode becomes active

Setting Objectives

When autonomous mode is enabled, set objectives:

You: "Monitor my investment portfolio and alert me to any
     significant changes. Use your judgment on what's significant."

Ukkin: "Autonomous mode active. I'll monitor your portfolio
       with these guidelines:
       - Alert on changes > 3%
       - Daily summary of all movements
       - Immediate alert on unusual activity"

How It Works

Objective Interpretation

Ukkin breaks down your high-level goals:

Objective: "Keep my inbox under control"

Interpreted as:
1. Check inbox regularly
2. Archive old, unread emails
3. Flag potentially important items
4. Notify about urgent messages
5. Provide weekly summary

Decision Making

Ukkin makes autonomous decisions:

  • Prioritizes tasks based on importance
  • Chooses optimal execution times
  • Handles errors and retries
  • Adjusts strategies based on results

Learning

Over time, Ukkin learns:

  • Your preferences
  • What you consider important
  • Optimal times to notify you
  • Patterns in your digital life

Autonomous Features

Proactive Suggestions

Ukkin may suggest actions:

Ukkin: "I noticed you often check Twitter around 9 AM.
       Should I create a morning summary of relevant tweets?"

Automatic Adjustments

Adapts to your behavior:

Ukkin: "Your price alert threshold of 10% resulted in
       many notifications. I've adjusted to 15% for less
       important items. Let me know if you prefer otherwise."

Context Awareness

Considers broader context:

Ukkin: "It's Black Friday week. I'm checking prices more
       frequently and lowering alert thresholds for items
       on your wishlist."

       Do you want immediate alerts for them?"

       before archiving emails from new senders."
