  What version 14 changed

  …

  **How do I set what my AI agents can do?** Open the **Permissions** tab of your project's [AI permissions](/ai/permissions) (Settings → AI permissions; admins only). You'll see d2's default. Press **Customize** at the bottom to make your own copy, move the slider (Cautious, Pro, Conductor speed), then open an area card and set any action to *Person*, *Asks*, *Tells* or *Free*. Save, and it applies at once.

   

  -**What do the four settings mean?** *Person:* only you, yourself, here in d2; your AI can't, even when you tell it to, but it can suggest it. *Asks:* you decide, either way: tell your AI to do it and it goes ahead (it names you as the one who asked), or it asks first; you get an approval on your [Work](/work) and [Pipeline](/pipeline) pages (**Approve** or **Refuse** on it, or **Approve all small** for every approval whose item is small) and it runs when you approve. Approvals never expire: one waits until you answer, and if what it was about has moved on by then (the item was taken or parked, the draft changed, the AI's token revoked), nothing runs and your AI is told to ask again. *Tells:* the AI does it and sends you a notice. *Free:* the AI just does it.

  -**The Permissions screen.** The first thing you see: a preset for the whole project (Cautious, Pro or Master speed), and one card per area (Pipeline, Docs, Ops, Agents) showing how much of it the AI may do freely. Open a card to see and set each step; **Customize** makes your project's own copy to change.

Open a card to see and set each step; **Customize** makes your project's own copy to change.

   

  

  …

  **Can an agent start work, or finish it, without me?** Two rows in the Pipeline card, each with a line for small items and one for medium, large or important ones. **Start an item**: *Person*: only when you tell it · *Asks*: it proposes and waits for your nod · *Tells*: it takes its next items and tells you · *Free*: it takes them quietly. **Finish an item**: *Asks* puts its finished work in review for you; *Tells* finishes it and puts it on your [to look at](/pipeline?look=1) list. Pro's default: small ones go ahead, bigger ones ask.

   

  +**How much of the designer's work waits for me?** The row *Design changes* in the **Docs** card, with a line for **Small**, **Medium** and **Large** changes (`design.small`, `design.medium`, `design.large`). *Free* or *Tells*: the designer makes the change and lists it for you to read afterwards. *Asks*: the change comes to you as a section to accept or comment on before it lands. *Person*: it is only made with you, in a chat. Cautious asks about anything but a large change, which is yours; Pro lets small ones through; Conductor speed lets small and medium ones through and asks about large ones. Not checked yet: the rows are there and set, and they apply once the designer's own routes are built.

  -**Who gives the coder new work?** The row *Give the coder new work* (`pipeline.coderWork`) covers every way an AI does it: making an item for the coder, and handing finished design work on to the coder. On *Asks* the handoff waits as an approval for you and goes through when you approve it. Cautious and Pro ask; Master speed tells, since on master a dispatcher runs the coders unattended and an approval would stall them.

Cautious and Pro ask; Conductor speed tells, since on conductor a dispatcher runs the coders unattended and an approval would stall them.

   

  **Can one role work differently from another?** Yes: *per role ▸* under any row opens a line per role (designer, coder, tester, guardian, maker and any role you add). A role line shows the row's value in grey until you change it; **Reset** makes it follow the row again. Locked rows have no per-role lines.

  …

  What your AI agents may do on their own in a project, and what waits for you. Every action (making an item, taking one, dropping it, publishing topics, deleting…) has one of four settings, and the project's **Permissions** page (Toolbox → Admin → Permissions) shows them all.

   

  +**Where a person steps in.** Work moves through [the pipeline](/pipeline) between you, the members and the AI agents in their roles (tap a box). Each arrow is a step an agent may take on its own, only after asking you, or not at all: that's what the permissions set.

  +**The Permissions screen.** The first thing you see: a preset for the whole project (Cautious, Pro, Master speed, or Today's rules), and one card per area (Pipeline, Docs, Ops, Agents) showing how much of it the AI may do freely. Open a card to see and set each step; **Customize** makes your project's own copy to change.
