Supervision and Autonomy Settings allow you to control how independently your Skej assistant can operate.

Unlike previous versions of Skej, the new platform gives you granular control over both:

This allows you to choose the level of involvement that matches your workflow, from fully hands-on to fully autonomous.

There are two separate concepts:

Autonomy determines whether your assistant needs approval before taking actions. Examples:

Supervision determines how visible you remain on conversations and communications handled by your assistant. Examples:

These settings work together but control different aspects of assistant behavior.

Navigate to the Autonomy section to control how independently your assistant can act. You can configure autonomy globally or separately for specific action types.

The assistant will not take action until you explicitly approve it.

Examples:

Manual mode provides the highest level of oversight.

The assistant prepares the action and notifies you before proceeding.

You are given a configurable period of time to:

If no action is taken during the confirmation window, the assistant proceeds automatically. This mode provides a balance between speed and oversight.

The assistant acts immediately without requiring approval.

Autonomous mode is best for trusted workflows that do not require review.

You can configure autonomy separately for different categories of actions.

Messages sent from your assistant's own email address.

Messages sent from your connected email account as if they came directly from you. Many users choose stricter approval requirements for this category.

Messages sent through connected communication channels such as:

Calendar-related actions including:

Actions involving connected file systems and storage platforms. Examples:

Actions involving contacts and contact records. Examples:

Actions performed through connected integrations and external applications. Examples:

Supervision controls how visible you remain on communications handled by your assistant.

You are always included on emails and messages your assistant sends. This provides maximum visibility into assistant activity.

Recommended when:

Your assistant keeps you on conversations where you are already participating.

It does not automatically add you to new conversations unless needed.

This mode balances visibility with inbox management.

Your assistant operates independently.

You receive a copy of the first communication, after which the assistant continues managing the conversation without keeping you on the thread.

This minimizes inbox noise while still providing awareness that a conversation has begun.

Visibility determines whether other participants can see that you are included on a conversation.

You are visibly included on communications. Recipients can see that you are copied on the conversation.

You are silently copied on communications. Recipients cannot see that you are included.

Most users find success with the following configuration:

As your confidence in your assistant grows, you can gradually increase autonomy and reduce supervision to allow Skej to handle more work independently.
