# Dangerous mode

> Let an agent work without stopping to ask for permission — and when not to.

Normally an agent asks before doing something risky — running a command, editing a file.
**Dangerous mode** switches those questions off, so the agent works without stopping.

## Turn it on

Open the agent card's ⋯ menu and choose **Enable dangerous mode**. An amber triangle appears in the
card's header. The setting is per card — it never applies to all agents at once. **Disable dangerous
mode** in the same place turns it off.

- **Claude Code**, **OpenCode 2.x**, **MiMo Code** and **PenguinHarness** switch instantly, both ways: the very next approval follows the toggle — no
restart, same conversation.
- **Every other agent** reads the mode when it starts. NeuroSquad offers **Restart now**: the agent
restarts and continues the same conversation. Choose **Later** to apply it at its next start.

> In dangerous mode the agent can delete files and run any command without asking. Use it on a
> project you have backed up, ideally together with an [isolated worktree](https://docs.neurosquad.ai/en/agents/worktrees) and a
> [budget](https://docs.neurosquad.ai/en/cards/budget).

Pi doesn't offer this mode — it never asks before running a tool in the first place. Plain terminals don't need it either.
