# Auto Mode

When Auto Mode is enabled, Qolaba automatically selects the most suitable tools, model settings, and configurations based on your prompt — without you needing to manually configure anything.

#### When to Use Auto Mode

Auto Mode is the right default for most tasks. Keep it enabled when:

* You want fast results without configuring settings manually
* Your prompt involves mixed inputs — text, files, and web context together
* You are running a repetitive workflow where consistent tool selection matters
* You are not benchmarking specific models or configurations

***

#### When to Switch to Manual Mode

Switch to Manual Mode when:

* You need strict control over which tools activate for a specific task
* You are benchmarking model outputs and need identical configurations across runs
* You are working with sensitive data and want to explicitly control what is sent to the model
* A specific tool is being auto-selected that is not relevant to your task

{% hint style="info" %}
Keep Auto Mode enabled unless you have a specific reason to override it. For most professional workflows, Auto Mode selects appropriately and saves setup time.
