While in autonomous mode, the mech cannot make any skill checks that use Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charasima. You can use your action to verbally command it to take the Attack, Dash, Disengage, Dodge, or Help action. Once you have the Extra Attack feature, you can make one weapon attack yourself when you command the beast to take the Attack action.
