Stop Autopilot
Purpose
Stop the background run in one step.
Stopping is not pausing. A user stepping away — closing the laptop — wants aidlc autopilot pause, which freezes the run and its agents where they are until aidlc autopilot resume (see the aidlc-autopilot skill). A stopped run leaves its agents running, and on a sleeping laptop they lose the network, exit, and have their items parked.
Instructions
Run:
aidlc autopilot stopNo confirmation is needed: stopping changes nothing that cannot be resumed.
Report what it printed: which run was stopped (its pid) or that none was active, and each agent still finishing. Agents already running are left to finish their current item; nothing new is started, merged or released.
Say how to resume:
aidlc autopilot run --items <n>(or--all) starts again and clears the stop.
Exit Criteria
- The stop file exists and the user has been told what was stopped and how to resume
