Unlock: own CIFI: Hephaestus. Individual automations unlock from Mod Tree nodes and Cell licenses.
Categories: generator automations, tech automations, fleet crew automations, fleet install loadouts, research center automation, Ouroboros automation.
Each level means one purchase attempt per tick for that tier, tech type or ship. Attempts can fail.
Each card shows ON in green or OFF in red. Tapping flips it.
Level Up buys at once. It costs Cells.
Owning a license is not the same as it being ON. Check the toggle.
Automation levels and ON/OFF states stay through a Loop Reset.
Buy order that works: generator automation first, then crew, then tech. The licenses cost about 1e120 (Cradle crew), 1e140 (Auxesia crew), 1e180 (Zagreus crew) Cells (snapshot numbers, UNSURE now).
Do the work automation does not do. Do not click what it already handles.

For the post-Ouroboros system, see CIFI: Academy automation unlock and setup. Do not treat an older future Loop Mod as its current unlock route.
