Control and safety.
This is the reference for the parts of Point that decide how much it does without you. Each one is a setting rather than a promise: how far it may go on a given kind of task, whether it waits for you first, what it wrote down about what it did, what can be undone, and what separates one business you run from another. The guides are written to be checked rather than read through, because that is what someone does with a control before they trust it. Where a control has a limit, the limit is stated here rather than left to be discovered.
