aim:set

AIM Set

Configure settings for an agent in the current session.

Available Settings

Agent settings (require @agent-name)

• permission_mode: Controls what the agent can do without asking
  • default - Standard permissions (prompts for most actions)
  • acceptEdits - Auto-approve file edits (like Shift+Tab)
  • plan - Read-only mode
  • bypassPermissions - Skip all permission checks (use with caution)
• timeout_ms: Maximum time to wait for agent response (in milliseconds, minimum 1000)

Session settings (no agent name needed)

• break_timeout_ms: How long the sidecar polls for replies before giving up (minimum 10000, default 120000)

Instructions

1. Parse from $ARGUMENTS: agent name (strip the @ prefix, if present), setting name, value
2. Call the aim_set MCP tool. For session-level settings like break_timeout_ms, omit the agent parameter.
3. Confirm the setting was updated
