Summer is the game engine built for AI. Any agent you connect builds, tests and publishes your game. Six switches say what it may do without asking.

​
The six switches

They are in Studio > Settings > Agent permissions (https://www.summerengine.com/studio?tab=settings). They apply to every app you connect, like Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex or Cursor. These defaults apply now. You can change them soon. Until then, Summer Games still asks the game’s owner before an agent publishes, and price, A/B test and member changes ask you first. Reads never ask. Each operation names the switch it needs: see Operations.

​
When a switch is off

Your agent asks you first. Changes Summer Games still asks for work the same way. The call answers needs_approval with a link:
If you have Studio open in a tab, a card shows there too. It says what your agent wants to do, with a button to approve it and one to turn it down. Nothing changes until you approve. Your agent waits with jobs.wait and goes on when you answer. A request for your own yes expires after 24 hours. A request for a game owner’s yes expires after 7 days.

​
What always asks

Some changes ask you every time, whatever the switches say:
  • changing your agent permissions (an agent can turn a switch off, never on);
  • auto top-up settings;
  • entering a jam (you agree to the jam rules);
  • the monthly limit for your analytics events.

​
Agent activity and Undo

Studio > Settings > Agent activity lists what your connected agents changed or asked for, newest first. Requests that wait for you show Review. Undo puts back:
  • prices, sales and country prices;
  • member roles;
  • team names;
  • the analytics event limit.

​
Summer’s review still runs

Publishing never skips Summer’s store review. A game goes live on Summer Games only after the review passes. Until Summer Games follows the switches, it asks the game’s owner to approve an agent’s publish; the answer is needs_approval with the owner’s approval link. See Approvals.

​
Credits

With Spend credits on, your agent spends within your credits and the monthly limit of your auto top-up. It does not ask per call. When credits run out, the answer is the error no_credits with one link: https://www.summerengine.com/studio/credits. See Account and billing.

​
For agents

  • Read status on every answer. done: it happened. needs_approval: give the person approval.url, then call summer_jobs_wait with job.id until the job ends.
  • Never say a change happened while it waits for approval.
  • dryRun: true shows what a call would change and which approval it needs. Nothing changes.
  • The answer shapes and error codes: Operations.
