Auto-Resolved

The building is on fire. Metaphorically. PATCH has a plan.

Auto-Resolved is a browser workplace sim. You start your IT career the same week PATCH, a brand new AI assistant, is released. Keep a multi-floor office running: walk the floors, ride the elevator, fix printers, passwords and networks by hand - or ask PATCH to do it for you.

PATCH is capable, earnest and occasionally disastrously confident. Every action it proposes comes with a plan, a scope and a risk estimate. Approve it, test it safely, ask for something safer, or do the job yourself. When it goes wrong, the incident is real: dig into the timeline, recover what you can, and add a guardrail so it never happens again.

Features

• A living office - staff arrive, work, take lunch and walk to you when things break. People only change floors by the elevator.
• PATCH, your AI partner - raise a ticket, a recurring problem or the whole queue, and review its proposal before anything runs.
• Backfires you can recover from - every AI action has a calculated, displayed chance to go wrong, and every failure has a way back.
• Automations - turn recurring tickets into hourly jobs that run on a floor or the whole building.
• Your own limits - fixes cost office time, stress and hunger build up, and management notices when you wander.
• A career of jobs - quit or get fired, spend what you earned upgrading PATCH, and move on to a bigger company with better pay and a building that looks nothing like the last: startups, accounting firms, game studios, hospitals, banks, megacorps and more.

Controls
