For a clear one-off task, native goals may be enough. Autopilot adds a reusable mission brief and working record. Faster execution and better outcomes are not established; read the pilot evidence.

An ordinary mission continues through useful checkpoints until verified completion, a blocker, a pause, or a user/host limit. A checkpoint alone is not a reason to stop. run-once is explicitly limited to one checkpoint. To continue across turns, explicitly request native goal mode when the host exposes it. Scheduling is a separate host capability.
