Unlock the workshop and let your character gather, craft and return for supplies.

Unlock requirements
Auto supply is a Rimebound unlock. Complete the Fourfold Sanctum, open the regions through Gearfall Basin, reach Engineering 25, and build the workshop in Hearthwake.
Workshop beams are crafted at Settlement 63. Use the beams from your inventory once to build the workshop. Merely carrying them does not unlock Auto supply. The missing-requirements tooltip shows which conditions you still need.
- Fourfold Sanctum complete and Gearfall Basin open.
- Engineering level 25.
- Workshop built using Workshop beams, crafted at Settlement level 63.
Start a supply run
Turn Auto supply on in a crafting menu, then choose a recipe. You can also turn it on beside your current eligible activity. Your character follows the supply chain, gathers missing materials, crafts any intermediate ingredients, and returns to the target recipe.
The usual target batch is up to 20 crafts. If rare supplies only support a smaller batch, the planner also tries 10, 5 and 1. Sailing and Mountaineering prepare supplies for one voyage or expedition at a time. Stop or choose another activity to cancel the supply run.
What Auto supply can obtain
The planner uses your character, unlocked activities and existing inventory. Gathering, crafting and Thieving can provide ingredients. It reserves shared ingredients while planning so the same stock is not allocated twice.
It does not buy items, farm combat drops, or run an expedition merely to obtain a rare input. Rare adventure and combat materials must already be in your bag. Trophy Hunting can be the target activity when its recipe has inputs.
If the run stops
A paused supply chain does not mean a lower-tier recipe will be substituted. Plan for the selected recipe's exact requirements.
- Read the missing-supply message: it names the unavailable ingredient or source requirement.
- Check the producing skill level and region access for every intermediate material.
- Obtain rare combat or adventure drops manually before restarting.
- Check that the target station is available and the chosen recipe is unlocked.
Keep frequent auto controls visible
The expandable Auto settings panel groups supplies with potions, infusions, summons, inventions, repeat activities and gearsets. Eligible consumable rows have a small pin checkbox: checking it keeps that row's selection and auto controls visible when the panel is collapsed.
Auto supply and auto-consumption are different controls. A potion's auto toggle refreshes that support item; it does not automatically produce another potion.
