Grant System Permissions
To act on your behalf, Silicon Worker needs some system permissions. Grant them as needed — you can skip what you don't use.
macOS permissions
In System Settings → Privacy & Security, enable as needed:
- Accessibility: recognize and operate UI elements (clicks, typing) — required for desktop automation.
- Automation: control other apps via scripting.
- Full Disk Access: read/write files in protected locations.
- Calendars / Reminders: read and write Calendar and Reminders (when using Apple-app features).
- Notifications: notify you when a task completes.
macOS usually prompts the first time a capability is used; you can also enable these in advance.
Windows permissions
Windows uses UI Automation for on-screen actions and generally needs no extra manual grants. If antivirus software blocks automation, add Silicon Worker to its trusted list.
Safety note: Silicon Worker asks for consent before sensitive actions (see Concepts → Tools & risk levels).
