Autoplay System Designer

Use this skill to design casino-grade auto-play behavior with clear stop rules, safe UI states, and compliance-ready confirmations.

Core Principles

• Auto-play must be explicit, reversible, and visible at all times.
• Auto-play never bypasses required confirmations for high-cost modes.
• Stop conditions are deterministic and checked before each spin.

Workflow

1. Define auto-play scope.

• Max spins, stop on win/loss, stop on feature trigger.
• Decide what happens on connection loss or errors.

2. Define UI states.

• Spin button becomes Stop during auto-play.
• Show remaining spins and active stop conditions.

3. Define confirmation flow.

• Require confirmation before start.
• Show cost multipliers or special mode costs.

4. Define stop rules.

• Manual stop always overrides.
• Stop on balance below min bet.
• Stop on session invalidation or compliance errors.

5. Prepare QA matrix.

• Single spin, multiple spins, feature trigger, error recovery.

Output Contract

Return:

1. Auto-Play Policy: limits, counters, stop conditions.
2. UI Mapping: button state, counters, labels.
3. Confirmation Flow: modal content and gating rules.
4. Error Handling: resume/stop policy and user messaging.
5. Verification: test matrix and pass criteria.
6. Risks: edge cases or ambiguity.

Execution Rules

• Auto-play must always expose a Stop control.
• Never allow one-click auto-play start without confirmation.
• Avoid restricted wording in social jurisdictions.
