Summary

Adds a prominent recommendation to use \copilot --yolo\ in step 4 of the Quick Start guide.

Why

Squad sessions involve many tool calls (agent spawns, file reads, git operations). Without --yolo, Copilot prompts for approval on each one, which breaks the flow. This is the single most impactful UX tip for new users and should be front-and-center.

Changes

  • Changed the startup command from \copilot\ to \copilot --yolo\
  • Added a Recommended callout above the code block for scannability
  • Added a brief > Why use --yolo?\ explanation below

What it looks like

Before:
\
copilot
\\

After:
\
Recommended: start Copilot with --yolo.

copilot --yolo

Why use --yolo? Squad makes many tool calls in a typical session...

No other sections of the README were changed.

Add prominent recommendation to use copilot --yolo in step 4 of the
Quick Start guide. Squad sessions involve many tool calls, so --yolo
provides a smoother experience by skipping individual approval prompts.
