# Safe Mode
> Control whether MoxyCode applies fixes automatically or waits for your approval.
MoxyCode has two fix modes — **Safe Mode** and **Auto Fix Mode**. Safe Mode is the default for all users. It gives you full control over every fix before it touches your code.
## The two modes
| | Safe Mode | Auto Fix Mode |
| ---------------------- | ----------------------------- | ----------------------------- |
| **Default** | Yes | — |
| **Apply Fix button** | Manual — you click it | Automated — skipped |
| **Save to confirm** | Required | Required |
| **Undo Fix available** | Yes | Yes |
| **Applies to** | Deploy errors + Code Analysis | Deploy errors + Code Analysis |
## Safe Mode
In Safe Mode, MoxyCode generates a fix and waits for you to review it before applying anything to your code.
**Deploy errors:**
1. Click **Analyze & Generate Fixes**
2. Review the Fixed Code, What Changed, and Overall Summary
3. Click **Apply Fix** to apply the change
4. Click **Save File** in the notification to confirm, or **Undo Fix** to revert
**Code Analysis:**
1. Click **MoxyCode: 💡 Explain & Fix** on a flagged line
2. Review the fix in the Code Analysis panel
3. Click **Apply Fix** to apply the change
4. Click **Save File** in the notification to confirm, or **Undo Fix** to revert
## Auto Fix Mode
In Auto Fix Mode, MoxyCode generates and applies fixes automatically — the Apply Fix button is skipped. You still see the notification with changed lines highlighted in green, and you still need to save the file to confirm.
**Deploy errors:**
1. Click **Analyze & Generate Fixes**
2. Fix is generated and applied automatically
3. Click **Save File** in the notification to confirm, or **Undo Fix** to revert
**Code Analysis:**
1. Click **MoxyCode: 💡 Explain & Fix** on a flagged line
2. Fix is generated and applied automatically
3. Click **Save File** in the notification to confirm, or **Undo Fix** to revert
In Auto Fix Mode, fixes are applied to your code immediately after generation. Always use Safe Mode when working against production orgs or any org with live users.
## Switching modes
Click **MoxyCode: Safe** or **MoxyCode: Auto** in the VS Code status bar at the bottom of the screen to toggle between modes.
* Switching to Safe Mode shows: *"MoxyCode: Safe Mode enabled — fixes require manual approval"*
* Switching to Auto Fix Mode shows: *"MoxyCode: Auto Fix Mode enabled — fixes apply automatically"*
The mode persists across sessions — MoxyCode remembers your last setting.
## When to use each mode
**Use Safe Mode when:**
* Working against a production org or any org with live users
* Applying fixes with a Medium or Low confidence rating
* Applying fixes rated Minor Risk or Review Needed
* You want to understand every change before it goes into your code
**Use Auto Fix Mode when:**
* Working in a personal development sandbox
* Iterating quickly through multiple deploy-fix cycles
* All generated fixes are High Confidence and Safe fix rated
* You are familiar with the codebase and comfortable with automatic changes
A good default workflow: use Safe Mode everywhere, switch to Auto Fix Mode only in your dev sandbox when you need to move fast.
## Common issues
The MoxyCode mode toggle appears in the VS Code status bar at the bottom of the screen. If it is not visible, make sure MoxyCode is installed and active — open any supported file (`.cls`, `.trigger`, `.js`, `.html`) to activate the extension. If it still doesn't appear, run **Developer: Reload Window** from the Command Palette.
You are in Auto Fix Mode. Click **MoxyCode: Auto** in the status bar to switch back to Safe Mode. If a fix was already applied that you want to revert, click **Undo Fix** in the notification or use `Cmd+Z` / `Ctrl+Z` in the editor.
Use `Cmd+Z` / `Ctrl+Z` to undo the save and the applied fix. VS Code maintains undo history across saves so you can still revert.
