The `--auto-accept` option only automatically accepts examples where at least two annotators agree. Some of the details of that behavior are explained in this thread:

> So let's extend the example. I'll be annotating this on-theme example: {"text": "a wood chuck could chuck a lot of wood if a wood chuck could chuck wood"} Again, I'll run: PRODIGY\_CONFIG\_OVERRIDES='{"feed\_overlap": true}' python -m prodigy textcat.manual issue-6044 examples.jsonl --label truthy And now I'll annotate this with the guybrush user. This user did not appear before. And for good measure, I'll show the annotation from db-out: \> python -m prod…

I'm wondering why you'd automatically want to accept annotations if only a single annotator was involved. It could work out, but you are risking accepting candidates where annotators might be disagreeing.

Could you give a bit more background? Is there a reason why only a subset of the annotated examples should be seen by two annotators?
