Explanation
An advisory or copilot-style agent surfaces insights, suggestions, and recommended actions to a human user who then decides whether to act. This is a deliberate design choice that keeps a human in the decision loop-appropriate for high-stakes scenarios where autonomous execution would carry too much risk. A fully autonomous agent (A) acts without human confirmation. A read-only agent (B) only retrieves and displays data without making recommendations. A background system agent (D) operates without any user-facing interaction. The copilot pattern is common in early-stage deployments where organizations want AI assistance without full AI autonomy.
